Çocukluk çağı kazalarından korunmada ev güvenliği davranışları ve anne farkındalığı üzerine iki farklı ebeveyn eğitim programının değerlendirilmesi

Amaç: Bu çalıșmanın amacı; çocukluk çağı kazalarında annenin farkındalığı ve ev güvenliği davranıșının iyileștirilmesi üzerine iki farklı ebeveyn eğitim programının etkinliğini incelemektir. Gereç ve yöntemler: Çocuğu 0-6 yaș arasında olan 74 anne çalıșmaya alınmıștır. Kırk yedi anneye (Grup 1) çocukluk çağı kazaları ile ilgili bir eğitim seminer programı verilmiștir. Diğer 27 anneye (Grup 2) ise bir eğitim broșürü verilmiștir. Bir ay sonra annelere ev ziyareti yapılmıștır. Kaza riskine karșı anne farkındalığı düzeyi, eğitimden önce ve ev ziyaretlerinde değerlendirilmiștir. Evdeki kaza riskleri ve annelerin eğitimden sonraki dönemde aldıkları güvenlik önlemlerini içeren bir form temel alınarak ev güvenlik düzeyleri ölçülmüștür. Annelerin ev kazaları konusundaki risk algısı bir ölçek ile değerlendirilmiștir. Sonuçlar: Grup 1 deki annelerin farkındalık düzeyleri Grup 2 den belirgin yüksek bulunmuștur. Toplam ev güvenlik puanları Grup 1 de belirgin yüksektir (p=0.040). Grup 1 deki anneler evlerinde kaza risklerini düzeltmeye daha eğilimlidir ve bu anneler ev kazalarının ciddi olduğunu daha fazla düșünmektedir. Kaza riskleri konusunda farkındalığı yüksek olan anneler, kazaları da daha ciddi olarak değerlendirmektedir. Sonuç: Annelerin interaktif ve odaklı kaza eğitimleri ev güvenliğini ve anne farkındalığını iyileștirmede etkili bir müdahale yöntemi olabilir.

The Evaluation of two different parental training methods on maternal awareness and home safety behaviors for childhood injury prevention

Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of two different parental training programs on improving both maternal awareness for childhood injury and safety behaviors. Material and Methods: Seventy-four mothers whose children aged from 0 to 6 years were participated. Forty-seven mothers (Group 1) were taken to an education seminary program for childhood home injuries. Other twenty-seven mothers (Group 2) were given an education pamphlet. One month later, a home visit program was done. The level of maternal awareness for injury risk was evaluated before training and at home visits. Home safety level was measured based on a form including home injury hazards and safety practices of mothers that were accomplished within the period following intervention. The level of maternal risk perception about home injuries was measured with a scale. Results: The awareness levels of the mothers in Group 1 were significantly higher than Group 2. Total home safety score was significantly higher in Group 1 (p=0.040). The mothers of Group 1 were more inclined to improve the injury hazards in their home, and they were more likely to report child home injuries as more seriously. The mothers with higher level of awareness about injury risks indicated home injuries as more seriously. Conclusion: The focused, interactive injury education of the mothers may be an effective intervention for improving the maternal awareness and home safety.
