本文闡述運用Rogers護理理論於一位康復之家重鬱症患者成功回歸社區生活之照護經驗。護理期間為2021年7月5日-12月30日,以觀察、病歷查閱、身體檢查、會談方式收集個案資料,再藉由Rogers理論之原則進行護理評估,確立個案有不遵從、無效性因應行為、個人復原力障礙三項健康問題。筆者於照護期間持續關懷、接納及同理個案,協助個案覺察負向思考、不合適的因應行為,並鼓勵個案參與規律的生活作息,再搭配非侵入性護理措施(包括園藝、藝術治療),提昇個案參與活動的動機,提升治療遵從性及其疾病因應行為,進而改善個案憂鬱程度及與家人的關係。個案回歸社區返家後可規律服藥及回診。期許此護理經驗提供未來長期照顧重鬱症患者之參考。
After patient returning to the community, we report the case of a patient with major depressive disorder in psychiatric halfway house and present our nursing experience by using Rogers nursing theory. During the period of care, data were collected from July 5 to December 30, 2021, using observation, medical record review, physical examination, interviews, and the principles of Rogers nursing theory. The following three health issues were identified: noncompliance, ineffective coping behavior, and insufficient resilience. We constantly used caring, acceptance and empathy skills to help the patient to aware negative thinking, and inappropriate coping behavior. Through this process, participation in regular lifestyle routines was encouraged; non-invasive nursing interventions (including gardening, art therapy) were implemented by nursing staffs.
