Background: People with a tracheostomy often experience physical and psychological changes, which can require a family member to become their caregiver. Discharge planning helps caregivers prepare for providing ongoing care at home.
Objective: To evaluate caregivers’ satisfaction with discharge planning.
Methodology: This study employed a descriptive, quantitative methodology. A total of 30 family caregivers were surveyed, and data were gathered using the PREPARED instrument.
Results: We found that 53.93% of respondents were satisfied with the preparation for returning home. However, there was a low level of satisfaction, especially regarding information about medication, support structures, and self-care training.
Conclusion: Our study shows that a structured program of nursing interventions based on scientific evidence is important for meeting the specific needs of family caregivers. This can facilitate a healthy transition.
