Psychoeducation Program Given to the Elderly Living Alone at Home in Terms of Some Parameters

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating a psychoeducation program designed for elderly individuals living alone at home. The study aims to assess how this program affects their psychological well-being, self-integration, and coping abilities. The research highlights common mental health challenges among the elderly, such as depression, anxiety, and loneliness, and seeks to improve life satisfaction through targeted support. The program includes eight sessions featuring activities tailored to participants' interests, such as art therapy (wood painting, creating shapes with mud), motivational interviewing for emotional expression, conscious awareness therapy to stay present, and various hobbies like gardening, knitting, puzzles, and games. These sessions are delivered through regular home visits and aim to reduce loneliness and promote happiness by encouraging social participation. Participants will be involved over an 8-week period with assessments to measure outcomes related to the psychoeducation program. Researchers will evaluate changes in psychological well-being, coping skills, and life satisfaction using relevant scales. The study monitors participants closely during the program to understand its impact on their mental health and quality of life.
