摘要：
This study investigated the experiences and the mental health status of the informal carers (usually relatives) of 38 former long-stay psychiatric patients. According to the GHQ-12, 45 per cent of carers were classified as minor psychiatric 'cases'. Women were significantly more likely than men to experience poor mental health. Most carers reported personal and social restrictions, but cases were significantly more likely than non-cases to report personal, physical and financial burden.
