目的：瞭解花蓮地區原住民與非原住民精神分裂病患主要照顧者需求及其相關因素。病人及方法：選取原住民與非原住民精神分裂病患之主要照顧者為研究對象。藉由結構性問卷進行訪談，收集兩組各50人。結果：整體而言，主要照顧需求類型以「實質性需求」的需求程度最高，其次為「訊息性需求」與「情感性需求」。而兩組照顧者僅在實質性需求呈現顯著差異，以原住民組照顧者的實質性需求高於非原住民組。結論：本研究結果將有助於醫療人員瞭解花蓮地區精神分裂病患主要照顧者之需求，以做為日後發展切合當地需求的因應策略與整體性照護的參考。

Objective: To explore the needs of and factors relating to caregivers of aboriginal and non-aboriginal schizophrenia patients in the Hualien area of Taiwan. Patients and Methods: The present study used purpose sampling to select and interrogate aboriginal and non-aboriginal primary caregivers who were responsible for schizophrenic patients. A structured questionnaire was used to acquire information from caregivers. Participants were recruited from two distinct caregiver groups, one consisting of 50 aboriginal and one of 50 non-aboriginal subjects. Results: The principal caregivers greatest needs were “material needs”; followed by “informational needs” and “emotional needs” in decreasing order. Aboriginal and non-aboriginal groups revealed a difference only with respect to the “material needs” category, for which aboriginal caregivers demonstrated a more pronounced need than non-aboriginals. Conclusions: Results of the study will be of assistance to health professionals in understanding the needs of primary caretakers for schizophrenic patients in the Hualien area of Taiwan, and will act as a reference for the future development of action plans and techniques for holistic care of schizophrenic patients.
