Popis: | It is important to know the mental state of the primary caregiver for patients requiring advanced home care. Herein, we report cases of failed medical treatment due to primary caregivers with psychological problems and a strong desire to have the patient live at home. Of the 486 cases analyzed from August 1, 2004 to October 31, 2012, in 10 cases, the primary caregiver had a strong desire to have the patient live at home. Preventing patients from entering home health care has become more difficult recently. Therefore, establishment of guidelines for interacting with primary caregivers is required. The introduction and application of medical ethical consultation is required for this purpose. The medical ethical consultation is designed to avoid the explanation of medical terminology as much as possible. In order to obtain a detailed understanding of the current state of the patient, it is desirable to pursue a clinical ethical interaction. |
