Quadriplegic care: an assessment of the impact of the carer.

M Delargy1, H Parry, A Burt.   

Abstract

Thirty-three voluntary carers living with dependent quadriplegics completed a questionnaire survey which recorded their views on the assistance they received. Disruption to sex life, wheelchair restrictions, personality change in the quadriplegic person, and problems with bladder care were the features they most disliked. We have introduced a self-help group. Respite care would assist them with the valuable service they provide at considerable personal cost.
