Stressors and coping of in‐hospital haemodialysis patients aged 65 years and over

Abstract

Further research is needed to investigate factors affecting the stressors and coping responses of older haemodialysis patients and to determine their impact on health outcomes. Such knowledge will assist nurses in developing age-appropriate strategies for promoting optimum wellness for these patients who will likely spend the remainder of their life adhering to the regimen of haemodialysis.
