調查指不少照顧者面對中度及嚴重睡眠問題

Chinese version only.

身患病痛時,如果影響到生活,需要別人照顧,不論患者或照顧者或許都會有壓力。有調查發現,不少受訪照顧者面對中度及嚴重睡眠問題,約四成人說,每日平均睡眠時間只有3至5小時,約有七成受訪照顧者是獨力照顧。

調查在去年12月至今年2月進行,以網上問卷訪問約228名照顧者,當中約九成半是女性。負責調查的香港婦女中心協會指出,部分受訪者照顧者正面對經濟壓力、照顧工作量大等問題。協會認為,有需要及早識別高危照顧者並提供支援,同時促請政府增加長期照顧服務,包括增加院舍數目、改善院舍服務質素等。

記者崔蔚恩訪問了協會賽馬會太和中心單位主管丘梓蕙,詳述調查發現和建議。
