The Relationship of Social Support With Quality of Life, Care Burden, and Burnout in Caregivers of Cancer Patients
Özet
This study was conducted to determine the relationship of social support with quality of life, care burden and burnout in caregivers of cancer patients and enrolled in the Oncology-Hematology Clinic and the Outpatient Chemotherapy Unit of a public hospital. The mean scores were found as follows: Zarit Scale of Caregiver Burden: 41.40 ± 10.68, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support: 66.27 ± 11.72, World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale Short Form-General Health Status: 56.25 ± 13.93, and Pines Burnout Scale Short Form: 2.45 ± 0.95. It has been determined that there is a significant relationship between social support and quality of life (p = .000, P = .005, p = .007). In conclusion, as social support increases among caregivers of cancer patients, their quality of life improves, and their caregiving burden and burnout decrease.
