摘要: | 隨著臺灣人口結構迅速老化,新北市身心障礙兒童及少年的長期照顧需求日益增加。本研究探討「長期照顧十年計畫2.0」對此特殊群體家庭生活品質的影響,特別是主要照顧者感受與挑戰。研究方法採用深度訪談,訪問多位家庭主要照顧者,旨在評估政策的有效性與存在的服務缺口。
研究結果顯示,儘管此項計畫提供一定的支持,但在實際執行中,許多家庭仍面臨資源不足與服務質量不一的問題。主要照顧者普遍感受到極大的壓力,且對服務的可及性與專業性有所質疑。此外,研究也發現政策在實際應用中缺乏靈活性,未能充分考慮家庭的個別需求。
基於以上發現,研究建議政府在未來的政策制定中應更加重視資源的合理分配和服務質量的提升,並進一步強化對家庭主要照顧者的支持機制,以真正改善目標群體之生活品質。
As Taiwan's population structure rapidly ages, the demand for long-term care for children and adolescents with disabilities in New Taipei City is increasing. This study examines the impact of the "Long-Term Care Ten-Year Plan 2.0" on the quality of life for families of this special group, focusing on the experiences and challenges of primary caregivers. The research method involved in-depth interviews with several primary caregivers to assess the effectiveness of the policy and the gaps in services provided.
The results show that despite some support from the plan, many families still face a shortage of resources and inconsistent quality of services. Primary caregivers generally experience significant stress and have doubts about the accessibility and professionalism of the services. Additionally, the research found that the policy lacks flexibility in practice, failing to adequately consider individual family needs.
Based on these findings, the study recommends that future policy-making should place greater emphasis on the equitable distribution of resources and improving service quality, and further strengthen support mechanisms for primary caregivers to genuinely enhance the quality of life for the target group. |
