Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Nursing Science
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Homebound individuals face elevated mortality risks and substantial physical and psychosocial burdens.
  • Clarifying the definition of homebound is essential for developing effective preventive strategies.
  • The concept of homebound status requires a precise definition to address the needs of this vulnerable population.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a concept analysis of homebound status.
  • To develop a conceptual definition of homebound.
  • To identify the attributes, antecedents, and consequences of being homebound.

Main Methods:

  • Concept analysis using Walker and Avant's method.
  • Thematic analysis of scientific literature from multiple databases (CINAHL, Medline, PsycINFO, Scopus) and online dictionaries.
  • Systematic review of existing literature and definitions.

Main Results:

  • Homebound is defined as an enduring state of reduced life-space confined to the home, with possible movement within the home.
  • Key attributes include need for assistance, powerlessness, confinement, mobility limitations, endurance, and weakness.
  • Antecedents involve physiological instability and immobility, influenced by illness and burden; consequences include inactivity and physical, psychosocial, and spiritual problems.

Conclusions:

  • The concept of homebound status redefines mobility and immobility.
  • Homebound status has extensive negative consequences, underscoring the need for proactive interventions.
  • Nurses are pivotal in preventing adverse outcomes associated with homebound status.
