Children with hemophilia have often been viewed at greater risk for altered self-esteem than their healthy counterparts. Our article shares the positive effects of the camp experience on children with hemophilia and subsequent enhancement of self-esteem. Interaction and support in the camp environment provide an opportunity for these children to gain independence and "prove" their self-worth and ability. Previous literature has provided a variety of findings on the relationship between chronic illness, such as hemophilia, and self-esteem alterations. We identify many opportunities for future education and research to provide quality nursing support to this unique population.
与健康儿童相比，血友病患儿往往被视为自尊心受损风险更高。我们的文章分享了夏令营经历对血友病患儿的积极影响以及随后自尊心的增强。夏令营环境中的互动和支持为这些孩子提供了获得独立并“证明”自身价值和能力的机会。以往文献对诸如血友病等慢性病与自尊心改变之间的关系有各种研究结果。我们确定了未来教育和研究的许多机会，以便为这一独特群体提供优质护理支持。
