| description | A person with good psychological wellbeing is a person who able to live with positive
impression and can work well in their daily life (Huppert, 2009). This study aims to explore
the challenges, support system and coping mechanism of family caregivers who are taking
care of their family members with schizophrenia living in Klang Valley. Nine caregivers have
participated in an in-depth interview session through online platform. Five themes have been
generated consisting of 11 sub-themes. Five themes generated are such as guardian role,
challenges faced by caregivers, emotion expression, support system and coping mechanism.
Caregivers have been facing with various challenges with some are lacking with efficient
support system. Caregivers did not get enough information related to schizophrenia from
professionals that led them to search that information by their own. As a conclusion,
caregivers need more information and guidance from professionals in order to allow them to
provide better care for patient and at the meantime, able to help them in getting better
psychological wellbeing. |
