Suy giảm thị lực, tình trạng chức năng và sức khỏe, cùng sự hài lòng với cuộc sống ở người Bedouin cao tuổi tại Israel
Tóm tắt
Suy giảm thị lực liên quan đến tuổi tác là một nguyên nhân chính gây ra những hạn chế trong chức năng. Nó thường ảnh hưởng đến phúc lợi xã hội, cảm xúc, tinh thần và thể chất của các cá nhân cũng như khả năng hoạt động hàng ngày. Mục tiêu của nghiên cứu này là xem xét tác động của suy giảm thị lực đối với hoạt động hàng ngày và cảm giác hài lòng với cuộc sống của người Bedouin cao tuổi. Đối tượng nghiên cứu bao gồm 88 người Bedouin cao tuổi từ 60 tuổi trở lên, tham gia vào một chương trình trung tâm chăm sóc ban ngày tại một thị trấn Bedouin ở khu vực phía nam Israel. Kết quả cho thấy rằng phần lớn người được khảo sát gặp vấn đề về thị lực, cả trong việc nhìn gần và nhìn xa. Suy giảm thị lực có mối tương quan đáng kể với cảm nhận về chức năng hàng ngày và tình trạng sức khỏe, cũng như cảm giác hài lòng với cuộc sống; những người gặp vấn đề về thị giác báo cáo gặp nhiều khó khăn hơn trong việc thực hiện các hoạt động hàng ngày, tình trạng sức khỏe của họ xấu hơn và mức độ hài lòng với cuộc sống thấp hơn so với những người không gặp vấn đề về thị giác. Một cuộc thảo luận về các phát hiện được cung cấp trong bối cảnh chính sách và cung cấp dịch vụ cho người cao tuổi. Ngoài ra, có những khuyến nghị cho nghiên cứu thêm.
