Abstract : Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun |
COVID-19 yang terjadi telah menjejaskan gaya hidup rakyat Malaysia pada tahun 2020 dan warga emas juga tidak terkecuali daripada menerima impaknya. Virus ini telah mengancam rutin aktiviti harian semua individu. Kajian ini bertujuan meneneroka cabaran yang dihadapi oleh warga emas di Seputeh, Kuala Lumpur semasa pandemik COVID -19 dengan menemubual sepuluh (10) warga emas berusia 60 tahun dan ke atas. Ini adalah kajian kualitatif yang menggunakan analisis bertema untuk meneroka pengalaman berkaitan cabaran yang dihadapi oleh warga emas. Berdasarkan temu bual, didapati terdapat enam cabaran y ang dihadapi oleh warga emas semasa pandemik; 1) menjaga kesihatan fizikal; (2) menjaga kesihatan mental dan psikologi; (3) kebolehcapaian terhad kepada perkhidmatan penjagaan kesihatan; (4) kekangan kewangan; (5) menggunakan alat teknologi; dan (6) dan memastikan keselamatan persekitaran. Kajian ini memberi implikasi kepada kepentingan sokongan sosial dan komuniti selain daripada jaminan kewangan kepada warga emas semasa krisis seperti pandemik. Sokongan sosial boleh digunakan untuk mengenalpasti strategi intervensi berkaitan risiko pengasingan sosial dan kesunyian dalam kalangan warga emas. Ini boleh dilakukan dengan pemantauan diri secara berkala melalui telekesihatan dan memahami kekangan warga emas dalam mempelajari teknologi. Kajian akan datang dicadangkan untuk meneroka strategi daya tindak yang dilakukan oleh warga emas semasa pandemik.
