|
|
Atopic Dermatitis is a complicate disease that accompanies other allergic sicknesses and requires long-term treatment. Therefore, development of an educational program that focuses on management of the disease is needed. This research attempted to enhance the educational effects on patients with atopic dermatitis. Also, as a systematic method to reduce the time and money spent for a through education about the sickness, a concentrated “Atopic Dermatitis Camp” is held at a restricted area to reveal the effectiveness of Atopic Dermatitis camps and the necessity to develop camp education is discussed. This camp provided education and recreational programs on Atopic Dermatitis to those elementary school students who live in Seoul and wants to participate. Over 4 sessions, 151 students participated in the overnight camp. As for the result of the research, a 15-point-scale survey on the Atopic Dermatitis patients’ knowledge on the sickness has shown a 10.64 average points before the camp and an 11.87 average after the camp. A statistically significant 1.23 points have risen. It is expected that education about the sickness through the Atopic Dermatitis camp had a positive effect on the
patients ’knowledge and also that this camp has been an opportunity to recognize the patients’ desires to participate in the Atopic Dermatitis camp.
