Abstract

<p>　This study aimed to clarify the resilience of partners of patients with temporary stoma, by conducting semi-structured interviews with five partners and selecting the resilience frameworks from Grotberg: individual internal strengths（I am）, support from others（I have）, and strength to cope（I can）. The results produced five categories for I have: “I have family that gives me support”, “I have someone who supports me who has experience of stomas”, “I have a doctor who gives me support”, “I have a place where I can go to talk when I have a problem”, and “I am helped by the existence of the patient”. There were eight categories for I am: “I accept it as it is”, “I accept it optimistically”, “I look on the bright side”, “I don’t hide the illness from the people around me”, “I am honest about my feelings”, “I can believe in myself”, “My experience up until now is a strong point”, and “I have other things to do apart from look after the patient”. There were six categories for I can: “I can obtain the information that I require”, “I can deal with the patient proactively”, “I can participate in the care required for the stoma”, “I can control my own emotions”, “I can perceive my own life positively”, and “I can work on the illness with the patient”. This study suggested that the resilience of partners who participate proactively in stoma care for patients is enhanced in response to the need of the partner for stoma care.</p>
