Papers by Dr.Baskaran .M
At the time of her initial history collection, she maintained eye contact with psychomotor agitation. Attention, concentration, and orientation were intact. She described her mood as disturbed and her affect was incongruent with her mood. Her speech was noted to be slightly increased in rate but easily interruptible when necessary. She exhibited a tangential thought process with content in line with a delusion of guilt, like the sudden crying of her son's death. She did not appear to respond to internal stimuli. At the time of the initial assessment, she denied any suicidality or homicidality.
Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching program on management of violent behaviour among primary care givers of mentally ill.
Methodology: The pre experimental study was undertaken on management of violent behaviour among primary caregivers of mentally ill clients. Convenient sampling technique was used. The data was collected through structured questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data.
Results: Majority of the 17 primary care givers (85%) had adequate knowledge and 3 primary care givers (15%) had moderately adequate knowledge regarding the management of mentally ill.
Conclusion: The results showed high significant level with mean difference score of 23.55 and the „t‟ value was 2.81 (p<0.05). Hence, null hypothesis is rejected and H1 research hypothesis is accepted. The study found that structured teaching program helped the primary care givers in caring with the mental ill.
