Abstract:
To emphasize the complexity and difficulty of parenting a child with special needs, this chapter introduces and defines the term “extreme caregiving.” Extreme caregiving involves the taking on of professional medical roles by a nonprofessional parent. It differs from both ordinary parenting and professional caregiving in that it is done in the home, often without respite or foreseeable endpoint. Unlike professional caregiving, it involves an intense personal relationship between parent and child. The need for extreme caregiving extends through multiple pediatric syndromes and disabling conditions, including intellectual disabilities and autism, dependence on home medical technology, and NICU survivors with chronic medical needs. There are few reliable statistics for the number of families performing this type of care, so this chapter also correlates various sources, in an attempt to enumerate them, and provides analysis that predicts that the numbers will continue to increase despite medical progress.

Abstract:
This chapter provides an overview of the consequences of a cancer diagnosis for female patients and their male caregivers, mostly partners or spouses. The majority of the couples adjust well; only a minority shows elevated levels of psychological distress a year or more after diagnosis. Nevertheless, the literature shows that cancer and its treatment may have a considerable impact on sexual functioning, fertility, and other aspects of the relationship. Communication between patients and partners and between couples and health care professionals plays a key role in solutions to these problems. Psychosocial interventions that may ameliorate the stresses these couples face are presented throughout the chapter. The authors also address issues of gender and caregiving.

Abstract:
Mixing personal history, interviewee voices, and academic theory from the fields of care work, the sociology of work, medical sociology, and nursing, this book introduces us to the hidden world of family caregivers. Using a multidimensional approach, the book seeks to understand and analyze the types of skilled work that family caregivers do, the processes through which they learn and negotiate new skills, and the meanings that both caregivers and nurses attach to their care work. The book is based on sixty-two in-depth interviews with family caregivers, home and community health-care nurses, and other expert observers to provide a lens through which in-home care processes are analyzed, while also exploring how caregivers learn necessary procedures. Further, the book examines the emotional labor of caregiving, as well as the identities of caregivers and nurses who are key players in the labor process, and gives attention to the ways in which the labor is transferred from medical professionals to family caregivers.

Abstract:
Cancer caregivers are an essential extension of the healthcare team. Rapid advances in cancer care, including new drugs and immunotherapies and more sophisticated diagnostic tools, have improved our ability to extend lives and enhance survival. As patients are living longer and with today’s shorter hospital stays and shift towards increased outpatient care, however, the burden on caregivers and their needs have substantially increased. Cancer Caregivers reveals the depth of complexities of caregiving experiences that the field of Psycho-Oncology has been exploring and the vast expanses we have left to understand. This text describes the characteristics and experiences of cancer caregivers based on their life stage, relationship to the patient, and ethnic group membership, as well as patients’ disease and treatment type. It highlights the significant progress in research focused on the development and dissemination of psychosocial interventions for cancer caregivers, and includes in-depth case studies to illustrate their delivery and application. The text also explores the provision of support to caregivers in the community and the legal and ethical concerns faced by caregivers across the care trajectory. Cancer Caregivers offers both fundamental and practical information and is a resource for all healthcare professionals who work with patients and families facing cancer.

Webster, Lynn. The Painful Truth. Oxford University Press, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/med/9780190659721.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
The Painful Truth describes the personal and social implications of living with chronic pain and paints a picture of how society can do a better job of helping people who are in pain. In Part 1, the author-a former president of the American Academy of Pain Medicine-tells in-depth stories about some of his patients, using each story to focus on a key issue that frequently surfaces in the lives of people who have pain. The value of a positive attitude, the way that pain combines with other things going on in a person’s life, the reality of prejudice, the risk of becoming addicted to opioids, the power of love, the possibility of leveraging faith for healing, the burden and necessity of caregiving, and the need to be active in managing and making decisions for one’s own life-these are issues that come out in the stories. In Part 2, Webster talks about the issue of pain on a societal level. He faces head-on the thorny decisions involved in the use of opioids to treat chronic pain. Finally he argues that we need a cultural transformation to increase the acceptance of people who are in pain and to mobilize society’s resources to find cures for pain and make them available to all who need them. The Painful Truth, while intended for laypeople, is also helpful to medical professionals and policymakers.

Full text
Abstract:
Almost fifty million people in the United States provide informal, non-professional supportive care to chronically ill and disabled family members. Survivors of critical illness often depend upon such care for their well-being and recovery. ICU survivors may need help with physical, psychological, and cognitive deficits, often involving many hours of care per day. Families play essential caregiving roles, supporting survivors’ diverse and profound needs, often with minimal outside help. Caregiving can be personally fulfilling, but many families suffer financially, physically, and emotionally as a result of caring for loved ones after critical illness. While some institutional programmes provide direct support to ICU survivors, little infrastructure exists to support the activity of informal family caregivers. Measures are needed to identify caregivers at risk and to develop and provide effective treatments both within and beyond the ICU. Research has begun to elucidate some of the ways in which providers of critical care can identify those at risk of long-term psychological or emotional hardship and suggests strategies to prevent some of the overwhelming sequelae of critical illness among families. More work is needed to provide a deeper and more nuanced understanding of risk factors and preventive strategies for caregiver burden following critical illness. This chapter reviews the burdens of caregiving and suggests ways to help ICU survivors’ families manage the daunting challenge of helping their loved ones recover from life-threatening illness.

Abstract:
This chapter reveals a flawed healer–patient relationship within the institutional life of the San Francisco pesthouse. Constant fear of contagion, the gruesome panorama of continuing suffering and death, and therapeutic frustrations had all taken their toll on doctors and nurses. Newspaper stories exposed acts of professional avoidance, hostility and cruelty, boredom and depression, even alcoholism and occasional suicide. The establishment was plagued with organizational deficiencies and a dearth of caregiving, yet because of its geographical remoteness, the San Francisco pesthouse drew little scrutiny from the authorities and public at large. Thus, the chapter explores the various reasons accounting for the cases of neglect as well as the various shortcomings of the San Francisco medical establishment as a whole.

Abstract:
End-of-life issues are increasingly central to discussions within medical anthropology, the anthropology of political action, and the study of Buddhist philosophy and practice. This book speaks directly to these important anthropological and existential conversations. Against the backdrop of global population aging and increased attention to care for the elderly, both personal and professional, the book challenges common presumptions about the universal nature of “caring.” The book shows an inseparable link between forms of social organization and forms of care. Unlike most accounts of the quotidian concerns of providing care in a rapidly aging society, the book brings attention to corporeal processes. Moving from vivid descriptions of the embodied routines at the heart of home caregiving to depictions of care practices in more general ways—care for one's group, care of the polity—it develops the argument that religious, social, and political structures are embodied, through habituated action, in practices of providing for others. Under the watchful treatment of the author, care becomes a powerful foil for understanding recent political turmoil and structural change in Thailand, proving embodied practice to be a vital vantage point for phenomenological and political analyses alike.

Meyer, Jessica. An Equal Burden. Oxford University Press, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198824169.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
An Equal Burden forms the first scholarly study of the Army Medical Services in the First World War to focus on the roles and experiences of the men of the ranks of the Royal Army Medical Corps (RAMC). These men, through their work as stretcher-bearers and orderlies, provided a range of labour, both physical and emotional, in aid of the sick and wounded. They were not professional medical caregivers, yet were called upon to provide medical care, however rudimentary; they served in uniform, under military discipline, yet were forbidden, as non-combatants, from carrying weapons. Their service as men in wartime was thus unique. Structured both chronologically and thematically, this study examines the work that RAMC rankers undertook and its importance to the running of the chain of medical evacuation. It additionally explores the gendered status of these men within the medical, military, and cultural hierarchies of a society engaged in total war, locating their service within the context of that of doctors, female nurses, and combatant servicemen. Through close readings of official documents, personal papers, and cultural representations, both verbal and visual, it argues that the ranks of the RAMC formed a space in which non-commissioned servicemen, through their many roles, defined and redefined medical caregiving as men’s work in wartime.

Abstract:
One of the greatest challenges for providers treating later-life depression is the wide variability of life circumstances that accompany depressive symptoms for clients across outpatient mental health, integrated primary care, and inpatient psychiatric settings. This thoroughly revised Clinician Guide for Treating Later-Life Depression: A Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy Approach outlines culturally responsive practices that target the contexts and drivers/antecedents of depression in middle-aged and older adults. Clinicians choose research-supported modules from the accompanying workbook that fit the needs of their clients (i.e., changes in brain health, chronic pain, sleep problems, anxiety, experiences of loss, family caregiving issues). This practical guide reflects continuing international scientific and clinical advances in applying cognitive-behavioral therapy to age-related problems using individual and group formats, with clinician-tested recommendations for telehealth practice. Flexible use of these clinical tools enhances the personalized application of change strategies, including behavioral activation, problem solving, relaxation training, attention to personal strengths and positive emotional experiences, self-compassion, cognitive reappraisal, and communication skills training. Case examples are provided to support the efforts of practitioners from a range of disciplines (e.g., clinical psychology, psychiatry, social work, counseling, marriage and family therapy, nursing, occupational therapy, and recreational specialists). The appendices include aging-friendly assessment tools and other resources to support professional development. Because the practical techniques presented have empirical support accumulated over decades, Treating Later-Life Depression is an indispensable resource for behavioral health providers who wish to effectively and efficiently help diverse aging clients thrive in a daily life that is true to their values and personal strengths.
