Bound in an Imbalanced Relationship
Migrant care-workers (MCWs) are often the main caregivers for frail older persons. We examined the complex relationship between MCWs and primary family caregivers (PFCs) in Israel to better understand how MCWs and PFCs perceive the formal and informal nature of their relationship. Given the high prevalence of two-income families who are unavailable for caregiving, the relationships among MCWs, PFCs, and care-recipients warrants examination, parti…
Shorter Telomeres Among Individuals With Physical Disability
The present findings suggest that individuals with physical disability and who exhibit high levels of perceived stress may be particularly vulnerable for accelerated cellular aging, suggesting that perceived stress can be used as a valuable target for intervention
Predictors of Migrant Live-in Care Workers’ Burden/Burnout and Job Satisfaction When Caring for Frail Older Persons in Israel
The results suggest that fostering better relationships and improving employment conditions could help reduce care workers' burden/burnout as well as improve their degree of satisfaction
Like one of the family? Understanding relationships between migrant live-in care workers and older care recipients in Israel
Frail older people worldwide are increasingly being cared for in their own homes by migrant live-in care workers; however, extant literature on care relationships in this care context is sparse. The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to explore the quality and the nature of care relationships between full-time, live-in migrant care workers and older people in Israel. Quantitative and qualitative data were drawn from a 2014 survey of 116 migr…
Social Engagement Care for Frail Older Persons
It is important to include SEC as part of the role of live-in migrant caregivers of older persons. However, there is a need to differentiate among types of SEC and subsequently optimize the match between the care-recipient's wishes and needs and the actual care provided
Recommended Vs. Reported Working Conditions & Current Satisfaction Levels among Migrant Caregivers in Israel
Utilization of Self-Identity Roles for Designing Interventions for Persons With Dementia
To date, little research has systematically explored the retention of self-identity in dementia and its potential use for the individualization of care. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of role-identity-based treatment for persons with dementia. We recruited a total of 93 elderly persons with dementia (mean Mini-Mental State Exam score = 10.58) for this study. Experimental (treatment) group participants were engaged in activit…
Salience of self-identity roles in persons with dementia
Self-identity in older persons suffering from dementia
The Mask of Dementia
A description of the social construction of dementia among elderly residents of a nursing ward is offered, based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in an Israeli geriatric centre. This account focuses on the construction of positive social identities and the ascription of roles for residents labelled as ‘demented’. The findings illustrate the split between personal and social identity in dementia. The applicability of conventional socio-psycholo…
Chronically ill, old, and institutionalized
An ethnography of an Israeli nursing ward is used to conceptualize four basic dilemmas that constitute the life world of residents: (1) new modes of somatic attention developed in the face of bodily decrepitude, (2) maintenance of social relations from a dependent position, (3) reconstruction of self-images in the context of identity fragmentation, and (4) redefining of subjective temporality within a cyclical ward routine. This article discusses…
