    Awareness of child abuse and neglect among students
    (Kare Publ, 2022) Uysal, Gulzade; Bozkurt, Gulcin; Duzkaya, Duygu Sonmez
    Objectives: This descriptive study was conducted to determine the level of awareness of child abuse and neglect (CAN) among students at a private university in Istanbul, Turkey. Methods: The study sample comprised 1533 students from all faculties and colleges of the university selected using the stratified sampling method. A demographic information form and the Child Abuse and Neglect Awareness Scale (CANAS) were used to collect the study data. Results:The findings revealed that 30.5% of the students had received some instruction about CAN and 72.9% indicated that they wanted lectures on CAN to be added to the curriculum. The mean total score of the CANAS and the mean scores of the physical abuse, emotional abuse, and neglect subscales were statistically significantly higher among female students (p<0.05). The physical abuse and neglect subscale scores of students who had formal education on abuse were higher than those of students who had not (p<0.05). Conclusion:The female students and those who had received instruction about abuse had greater awareness of abuse and neglect. Broader coverage in the curriculum may increase the awareness of all students and help to enhance public understanding.

    (Galenos Publ House, 2024) Bozkurt, Gulcin; Duzkaya, Duygu Sonmez; Uysal, Gulzade; Yakut, Tulay; Karakul, Atiye
    Introduction: This study was performed to determine the difficulties experienced by parents with children in home care who were discharged from intensive care. Methods: A phenomenological qualitative method was used to determine the difficulties experienced by the parents. The sample of the study consisted of parents (n=22) whose children met the inclusion criteria and needed home care. The data were analyzed in the MAXQDA qualitative data analysis program in accordance with Colaizzi's seven-stage method. Results: The average age of the children in the study group was 85.63 +/- 58.40 months. 56.7% of them were male. 40% of the children were followed up with a diagnosis of neurological disease. All children discharged from the intensive care unit had tracheostomy. 95.4% of them used home-type mechanical ventilators, and 95.3% were fed enterally. In line with the data obtained from the interviews of the parents, it was determined that there were difficulties in terms of feelings about discharge, physical conditions for home care, family relationship, social relationship, difficulty in physical care, inadequacy in support systems and financial status. Conclusion: The home care of children, who are dependent on medical technology and discharged from intensive care, is mostly performed by their families. Children dependent on medical technology should be supported by home care personnel to avoid potential risks.
