Summary

Loneliness can have negative consequences, both physically and psychologically. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of a telematic group intervention in reducing feelings of loneliness and social isolation, as well as improving the emotional well-being of people in home care. The sample is made up of patients aged 60 to 99 years resident in Sabadell health area who receive regular home care in the ATDOM Programme by the Primary Care Team of the Corporació Sanitària Parc Taulí, who agree to participate in the study and meet the eligibility criteria. The study includes clinical assessments, emotional well-being, social support and satisfaction with the intervention.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Telematic support group

The participation of each patient in the study has been established for 4 months; the first and last months correspond to the evaluation phase, the remaining two months are for the intervention. A total of 7 group sessions of 90 minutes duration and weekly frequency are scheduled, carried out via telematics and conducted by an emotional well-being professional, a nurse and a social worker. In this context, it is guaranteed that patients will receive the care, visits and treatments usually used for people who have presented their clinical situation. The only difference between participating in the intervention and not participating in the intervention is the participation in a telematic support group and some additional assessments, i.e. not routinely carried out, which are part of this project. The intervention will be carried out in a group format, with a maximum of 12 patients per session.
