Abstract: Family caregivers are people or groups who volunteer their time to assist in caring for family members
who are dealing with mental health issues. It is also hoped that the family caregiver would be able to
support the patient's recovery both financially, emotionally, and physically. This study examines the
vulnerability of family caregiver schizophrenia and analyze the family resilience of family caregiver
schizophrenia in Jebres, Surakarta. The goal of this study is to examine the vulnerability of family
caregiver schizophrenia, how family caregiver dealing with vulnerability and how family caregiver
builds resilience. I utilized a qualitative technique with a case study approach to preparing this paper,
looking at primary material from interviews and field observations. I presented secondary data, those
were, information obtained from books, manuals, and written reports, as proof. According to research
on family resilience after taking on the role of the informal family caregiver, informal family caregivers
believed that People with Schizoprhenia (ODS) had had a positive or negative impact on their lives,
hence family resilience had a more positive impact, such as believing they would be able to survive
because they are a family member or relatives. In addition, the ability of family caregivers to adapt
and survive in the face of vulnerabilities or problems could create resilience. Meanwhile, family
caregivers who were unable to adapt and survive in the face of problems made their families more
vulnerable than before |
