REHABİLİTASYON HEMŞİRELİĞİNDE HAYVAN DESTEKLİ UYGULAMALAR

Abstract

Rehabilitasyon hemşireliği; kronik bir hastalığı olup, uzun süre bakım ve tedaviye gereksinim duyan hastaların öz-bakımını arttırmaya, bozulan fonksiyonlarını düzeltmeye ve yaşam kalitesini arttırmaya yönelik girişimleri hedefleyen bir hemşirelik alanıdır. Hayvan destekli uygulamalar; rehabilitasyon hemşireliği sürecinde belirtilen hedeflere ulaşmak, tedavi ve bakımı kolaylaştırmak için kullanılan, önemli yararları olan bir müdahale programı olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Temel prensibi, insan ve hayvan etkileşiminin sağladığı biyolojik-fiziksel-kimyasal değişimlerle ortaya çıkan psikosomatik etkilere dayanmaktadır. Hayvan beslemek ya da hayvanlarla birlikte olmak, bu etkilerin ortaya çıkmasını sağlayarak mental, sosyal ve fiziksel sağlığın iyileştirilmesinde önemli rol oynamaktadır. Bu uygulamaların yararlarının ortaya çıkması için veteriner, halk sağlığı uzmanı, fizik tedavi ve rehabilitasyon uzmanı, fizyoterapist, diğer deneyimli terapist ve hemşire gibi profesyonellerden oluşan multidisipliner bir ekip çalışması gerekmektedir.

Bu makalede, hayvan destekli uygulamaların etki mekanizmaları ve yararları ile ilgili bilgilere yer verilmiş olup, özellikle rehabilitasyon hemşireliği alanındaki kullanımına vurgu yapılmıştır.
