摘要
愛滋病除了對病患本身造成傷害，同時也對家庭成員造成重大的衝擊。本篇個案報告主要是探討愛滋病患者的主要照顧者在面對其雙親前後因愛滋病住院治療，最後甚而雙親皆死亡，其所產生的生理反應如睡眠型態改變、及吃不下東西；心理方面則爲擔心自己被感染愛滋病、害怕社會大眾的異樣眼光；最後甚至因害怕別人問起母親的病情而不敢與友人外出等社會方面問題，經由筆者從89年6月4日至89年6月23日與個案進行會談及觀察，運用關懷照護理論與個案建立良好人際關係及信任感、提供相關醫療資標、適時的關心個案、給予希望及協助個案坦述內心的感受，最後個案不但能主動向其叔叔及嬸嬸談及雙親罹患愛滋病的事實，而且也能親自至防治中心接受愛滋病篩檢，釐清心中疑慮，睡眠型態也恢復正常。

The purpose of this case study was to examine the physical-psychological responses for one primary caregiver of an AIDS infected parent hospitalized at a hospital in northern city of Taiwan. Interviews and observations of the caregiver occurred between June 4, 2000 and June 23, 2000. Eight process recordings were completed. The main physical responses of the caregiver were sleep pattern changes and poor appetite. The psychological responses were fear of being infected by AIDS, fear of discrimination by society, being asking about his parent's illness, or isolation from social activities. Watson's Theory was used to establish a positive interpersonal relationship and trust with the caregiver, to provide information about medical resources, and to guide appropriate care of the caregiver, including giving hope and sharing feelings with him. In conclusion, the caregiver showed improvement in several areas: agreeing to have an AIDS screening test at prevention center, change in sleep pattern to normal, and actively discussion with his uncle and aunt about his parent's illness.
