Abstract

Documented evidence indicates that medication non-compliance for the older person is a common and poorly understood problem. This paper reports on a pilot study, which used a focus group interview to explore carers' attitudes, experiences and perceptions regarding medication compliance for their older depressed relative. It aimed to understand the problems and challenges encountered by carers in respect of their relative being non-compliant, and provide material to develop a comprehensive educational and support package to promote antidepressant compliance. A convenience sample of seven carers participated in the focus group and a qualitative analysis of the interview identified a number of key issues. Carers had little knowledge of depression, they were not well informed regarding antidepressant medication and they took an active role to ensure compliance. The focus group highlighted the need for health care professionals to promote and encourage carers to be part of the older individuals treatment programme and provide concise and unambiguous educational information in relation to antidepressants and the importance of compliance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
