dc.description.abstractThe aim of the present study is to evaluate the quality of life of homecare patients and the burden of their family caregivers. The study was conducted in the home health care unit of a state hospital using a descriptive cross-sectional design. The data were collected from patients (n = 105) who agreed to participate in the study and their family caregivers (n = 105). The mean quality of life score of homecare patients was 68.15 +/- 9.90 (M +/- SD). The mean caregiving burden score was estimated to be at a moderate/high level with a value of 53.72 +/- 13.30. A significant moderate negative correlation was found between the homecare patients' quality of life and caregiver burden (r = -0.649; p < .05). The finding that higher family caregiver burden was associated with lower quality of life among homecare patients suggests that health professionals approach homecare patients together with their family caregivers.en_US
