Family caregivers encounter hardships managing the pain of family members with Alzheimer's disease and a comorbid pain-related condition in the home setting. The lack of qualitative inquiry on the hardships experienced by family caregivers established a need for the study. A descriptive phenomenological design was conducted to describe the hardships experienced by family caregivers. The central research question was: How do family caregivers in the home setting describe hardships experienced in managing pain for a family member with late-stage Alzheimer's disease and a comorbid pain-related condition? Recruitment of family caregivers occurred in Central Florida using a nonprobability purposive sampling strategy. Family caregivers (N = 8; Age Range 48 to 82 years; Mean Age = 65.7; SD = 11.2) were females (Caucasian 75%; Hispanic 25%), males (Caucasian 100%), spousal caregivers (63%) and child/parent caregivers (37%). Colaizzi's 7-step reductive phenomenological process was used to analyze the 60- to 90-minute semi-structured interviews and to methodically categorize, code, identify and organize themes. Edmund Husserl's doctrine of phenomenology was used to describe five emergent themes: medication administration barriers, pain assessment challenges, pain management challenges, caregiver hassles, and caregiver suggestions for better support. The data were managed and stored using NVivo 12 qualitative software. Findings from the study will add to the dearth of qualitative research literature on the hardships experienced by family caregivers and provide healthcare professionals with evidence needed to design supportive educational interventions on pain management for family caregivers in the home setting.
