Description

Shumaila Abbas and Jamal Abdul Nasir measure the social strain on families who cared for COVID-19 patients. Their 2024 study is set in Punjab, Pakistan, where little such work had been done. It uses a survey of 22 yes-or-no items given to family caregivers during the pandemic.

The answers sort into five domains of burden. Strain levels also varied with traits like sex, age, marital state, job, and income. Living setup and the kind of care given played a role as well. The authors offer the scale as a base for policy and support services. They aim the findings at officials who plan help for caregivers in a health crisis.
