Abstract
The purpose of this study was the family caring for the patients under home care nursing in the two college hospitals in Busan and Kyungnam Province. Researchers deep-interviewed the participants and asked using the non-constructed questions. 'What did you experience through home care nursing?'. The results are summarized as follows ; First, there were 196 final meaningful statements in the end and 32 constructed meanings, which were classified into 13 themes. These themes were again divided into four categories such as introduction, development, turn and conclusion. In the 'Introduction' three themes were included as follows ; 'feeling their eyes blinded', 'feeling a burden to have such a patient at home', and so on. In the 'conclusion' consisted of four such as 'finding it worthwhile to take care of them at home despite in the suffocated reality', 'pinning hope on the patient', 'retiring the world at first, but later going outdoors and feeling better', and 'realizing the real meaning of family through the difficult situation'. On the basis of this research results, home care nurses have to include the patients' family among home care clients and gradually change the home care nursing into the positive direction by sensitively responding to their requests.
