Category : Adjustment (Psychology)
Languages : en
Pages : 78
Book Description
Abstract:The resiliency Model of Family Stress, Adjustment, and Adaptation by McCubbin and McCubbin is based on Hill's Family Stress Theory. It provides a method to assess family functioning and the coping techniques utilized to facilitate adjustment and adaptation to a medically stressful hospitalizations and diagnosis. It provides a method to assess stressors, family coping, and how the crisis has disrupted the family functioning. The main emphasis of this model is on resiliency of families and their ability to recover from adverse events. It defines the family strengths and the family's response to health stressors. It assists the health care team in defining areas that interventions may be developed to better assist families in achieving positive adjustment to illness. This theory is utilized to assess a family that has just given birth to an infant diagnosed with short gut syndrome, which has a poor long-term prognosis and is being discharged home with hospice involvement and palliative care. This stressful event impacts the whole family and their ability to find positive avenues to cope is paramount to how they adjust and adapt to this event.

Pages : 556
Book Description
Resilience is a topic that is currently receiving increased attention. In general, resilience refers to the capacity of those who, even under the most stressful circumstances, are able to cope, to rebound, and to go on and thrive. Resilient families are able to regain their balance following crises that arise as a function of either nature or nurture, and to continue to encourage and support their members as they deal with the necessary requirements for accommodation, adaptation and, ultimately, healthy survival. Handbook of Family Resilience provides a broad body of knowledge regarding the traits and patterns found to characterize resilient individuals and well-functioning families, including those with diverse structures, various ethnic backgrounds and a variety of non-traditional forms. This Handbook brings together a variety of perspectives aimed at understanding and helping to facilitate resilience in families relative to a full range of challenges.

Rather than investigating the pathology of families under stress, this book takes the unusual step of studying individuals, families and ethnic groups moving towards health. This approach provides new insights as to why some families manage life events with relative ease and recover from adversity with renewed strength, harmony and purpose. The contributors develop the concept of a family and culturally induced sense of coherence as the key to promoting health and well-being.
