Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmada örneklem seçimine gidilmemiş, bu araştırmanın örneklemini Erzincan ili sınırları içerisinde bulunan Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesinin kadın doğum polikliniklerine herhangi bir nedenden dolayı başvuran 20-65 yaş arası 380 kadın hasta oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri 2022 yılı Mart ve 2022 yılı Haziran tarihleri arasında, Sosyodemografik Özelikler ve Bilgilendirme Formu, Sağlık Okuryazarlığı Ölçeği ve Jinekolojik Kanserler Farkındalık Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde standart sapma, ortalama, yüzdelikler, sayılar ve Sperman Korelasyon Analizi yapılmıştır. Bulgular: Araştırmada kadınların üçte ikisinin 20-35 yaş grubunda yer aldığı, yaklaşık yarısının üniversite mezunu olduğu, hemen hemen dörtte üçünün çalışmadığı, %88,7'sinin PAP testi yaptırmadığı, %69,2'sinin HPV aşısını bilmediği belirlenmiştir. Kadınların Jinekolojik Kanserler Farkındalık Ölçeği puan ortalamasının 150.23±28.73 ve Sağlık Okuryazarlığı Ölçeği puan ortalamasının ise 100.79±21.15 olduğu belirlenmiş olup, iki ölçek arasında pozitif yönde bir ilişki bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Kadınların, jinekolojik kanserler farkındalık ölçeği ve sağlık okryazarlığı ölçeği puan ortalaması orta düzeyin üzerinde bulunmuş olup, sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeyi arttıkça jinekolojik kanser farkındalık düzeyleri de artmaktadır. Jinekolojik kanserlerin erken tanısına yönelik bilgi düzeyleri ile kanser taramalarına katılımı artırmak için kadınların, sağlık okuryazarlık düzeylerinin artırılması yönünde girişimlerde bulunulması önerilmektedir.

In particular, the presence of a patient with a disease that requires palliative care changes daily activities and routines, increases responsibilities of those who take the responsibility for patient's care and changes the roles in the family. The objective of this study was to determine the care burden and social support levels among the caregivers providing care for patients hospitalized in palliative care clinics. Materials and Methods. The population of this descriptive and correlational study consisted of caregivers taking care of patients treated at the Palliative Care Clinic of Training and Research Hospital between May and October 2018; the sample consisted of 73 caregivers who volunteered to join the study and were open to communication. Data were collected by questioning patients and their caregivers about their sociodemographic characteristics, using the Caregiver Burden Scale and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support. Data analysis included percentages, the Kruskal-Wallis test, the Mann-Whitney U test, and the Spearman's Correlation Coefficient. Results. The average caregivers' age was 45.44 ± 13.76 years; 75.3% of caregivers were females, 30.1% of caregivers were literate or had primary school degrees. Caregiver's gender and educational levels were found not to affect caregiving and social support levels; however, the economic status affected caregiving and social support levels. There was a reverse correlation between the caregiver burden and their social support levels. Conclusions. With increased caregiver burden, their social support level decreased. Nurses caring for patients in palliative care clinics will benefit from educating and supporting caregivers about clinic and home care; it will result in a positive level of social support for both caregivers and patients receiving care.
