伴他度過暴風雨後的平靜──談歷經機構安置自立生活者生活與心理困境

After the storm calm: The life and psychological challenges of independent-living youth adult who experienced residential care.

有鑑於安置離院需追蹤輔導人數增加，但在實務工作上未有明確輔導方向，故盼藉由探究歷經機構安置自立生活者的生活與心理困境，協助相關網絡人員能對自立生活者有更全面瞭解，並對於如何依據自立生活者個別情況給予深度協助並建立合作互動關係給予建議。經資料整理發現，歷經機構安置過程易對兒少依附議題產生衝擊，進而影響兒少社會與心理調適能力。又離開機構後的自立生活者面臨的生活困境可分為個人條件的困境、網絡資源的不足，以及體制未完善造成的問題，而在心理困境上常見有情緒困擾、情感依附與創傷修復。因此建議網絡工作人員除了生活上的安頓照顧外，亦需留意心理需求與依附議題帶來的影響，且可強化心理衛生評估及熟悉自立生活者相關社福資源，有助及時轉介或及時提供自立生活者所需資源，建立優質的合作關係，協助自立生活者能有更佳身心調適。 Based on literature, experiencing residential care may make an impact on the attachment of children and adolescents, and thus affects their abilities in social and psychological adjustment. The independent-living individuals who left the institution may face living difficulties such as limited personal condition, resource deficiency, and problems caused by imperfect system. As for common psychological challenges, there are emotional problems, emotional attachment, and trauma repair. Therefore, it is suggested that network staff should be mindful of the impact of attachment issues and psychological needs aside from providing living care. Also, strengthening psychological assessment as well as social welfare resources for independent-living individuals is helpful for network staff to make prompt referrals, establish quality rapport and facilitate better physical and mental adjustment of independent-living individuals.
