Behavioral disorders and dependence on family members with mental retardation lead to care and family responsibilities causing burdens and anxiety in response to stress in mentally disabled children.
Purpose: To determine the effectiveness of supportive and psychoeducational family therapy: A linkage towards burden and anxiety of care for children with mental retardation
Method: A quasi-experimental pre-post test design with a control group. The population was the family who has a child with a mental retardation member. The sample was 76 participants using a simple random sampling technique. Data analyzed using Univariate and bivariate.
Results: The family burden of mentally retarded children before intervention in the treatment group was 50.18 with a standard deviation of 18.958. The burden on families with mentally retarded children after being given intervention in the treatment group was 46.45 with a standard deviation of 17.168. There are differences in the reduction of burden and family anxiety with mentally retarded children before and after the intervention in the treatment group.
Conclusion: Psychoeduactive and Supportive Therapy can be a standard therapy in overcoming the burden and family anxiety in dealing with children with mental retardation. The schools with disabilities need to have a special room to carry out therapy and improve the quality of comprehensive nursing care by recruiting nurses who are competent in providing mental therapy specialists.
