Overview
Brief Summary
The responsibilities of caring for a disabled family member may cause caregivers to develop risky behaviors for caregiver's health. Therefore, we aimed to examine the relationship between caregiver burdens and healthy lifestyle behaviors of family members caring for a disabled child.
Detailed Description
In the study, family members living in Bukhara, Uzbekistan, and caring for a disabled person under the age of 24 were evaluated. Caregiver burden was evaluated with the Caregiver Burden Scale and healthy lifestyle behaviors were evaluated with the Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale II. The fact that there is no earlier study on caregivers of disabled people in Uzbekistan and no research in the literature examining the relationship between caregiving burden and healthy lifestyle behaviors in individuals with disabled children, make this study unique.
