Abstract |
The way families handle their children who experience Autism varies from one family to another, which is clearly influenced by the culture adopted by each family. This ethnographic study aimed at describing family management on autistic children in Malay ethnic in Pontianak city, Indonesia. Data was collected through focus group discussions and in-depth interviews from key informants consisting of 20 Malay families who have autistic children. Those were recruited by a purposive sampling method. The collected data was then analyzed using thematic analysis. There are three themes found in this study, 1) women act as primary caregivers, 2) men managing autistic children, and 3) family seeking help. This study was also intended to show the culture, values, and beliefs adopted by families to determine how families manage and deal with autistic children in their homes. It is important for nurses and health workers to understand the cultural diversity that exists in the community. Thus, they can provide nursing care for each family tailored to their respective cultures and beliefs so that autistic children can grow optimally. |
