Bu araştırma, Alzheimer hastalarına bakım verenlerin yaşadıkları güçlükleri belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Tanımlayıcı olarak 50 bakım veren ile yapılan araştırmada, veri toplama aracı olarak, araştırmacı tarafından ilgili literatür incelerek geliştirilen veri toplama formu kullanılmıştır. Verilerin istatistiksel değerlendirilmesinde Ki-kare ve Fisher's exact testleri kullanılmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgulara göre bakım verenlerin %64'ü bakım verme nedeniyle ailede güçlük yaşamakta, güçlük yaşayanların %40.6'sı bakımda destek alamama, %34.4'ü psikolojik, %18.8'i ekonomik güçlük yaşamaktadır. Bakım verenlerin %90'ının günlük yaşamı etkilenirken, hastası ileri evrede olan bakım verenlerin %83.3'ü bakımda sorun yaşamaktadır. Bakım verenlerin hastanın amaçsız gezinme sorunu olması ile ailede güçlük ve bakımda sorun; fekal inkontinansı olması ile bakımda sorun yaşaması arasındaki fark istatistiksel olarak önemli bulunurken (p0.05). Bakım verenlerin destek alma durumları ile ailede güçlük yaşama durumları arasındaki fark istatistiksel olarak önemli bulunmazken (p>0.05), Alzheimer hastası dışında bakım verilen bir başka kişinin olması ile ailede güçlük yaşaması arasındaki fark; bakım verenin bakımda sorun yaşaması ile bilgi gereksinimi olma durumu arasındaki fark ve bakım verenin ekonomik durumunun hastalık nedeniyle etkilenmesi ile ailede güçlük yaşaması arasındaki fark önemli bulunmuştur (p
