| dc.description.abstract | Post-stroke care is the most difficult and longest treatment. This will put
pressure on the family as caregivers because stroke patients are unable to take care
of themselves. This makes caregivers often experience stress, in this case it is very
necessary for family resilience as caregivers. This study aimed to determine the
relationship between resilience and family stress levels as a caregiver for stroke
patients who experience hemiplegia. This research design used correlation analytic
with cross sectional approach. The population in this study was all families of stroke
patients who experienced hemiplegia at Prof. Hospital. Dr. Soekandar Mojosari,
Mojokerto Regency on June 1-15 July 2021 a total of 22 people. The sampling
technique of this research was consecutive sampling. The sample in this study was
20 people. The research instrument used the Walsh Family Resilience
Questionnaire and the Kingston Caregiver Stress Scale. Data analysis used
Spearman Rho test. The results suggested that almost all respondents had moderate
resilience, as many as 17 people (85%), and most of the respondents experienced
moderate stress, as many as 15 people (75%). The results of the Spearman Rho test
suggested that p-value = 0.000 so that there was a relationship between resilience
and family stress levels as caregivers for stroke patients who experience
hemiplegia, the higher the resilience, the lower the stress level. This is because the
families support and strengthen each other not only in words but in actions.
Assistance from other families in caring for stroke patients, both physical and
financial, will further strengthen family resilience so that the perceived burden is
not heavy and the pressure experienced is also lower. | en_US |
