Nurses who care for oncology patients are in a unique position to observe and assess how the family is managing this stressful experience. Families under stress can create obstacles to delivering optimal nursing care, resulting in feelings of powerlessness on the part of the nurse. This article proposes a family life-cycle framework for assessing families. The concept of centripetal and centrifugal modes constructively links the illness life cycle to the individual and family life cycles. Recommended psychosocial interventions using this model are addressed.
照顾肿瘤患者的护士处于一个独特的位置，可以观察和评估家庭如何应对这种压力重重的经历。处于压力下的家庭可能会给提供最佳护理造成障碍，导致护士产生无力感。本文提出了一个用于评估家庭的家庭生命周期框架。向心和离心模式的概念建设性地将疾病生命周期与个人和家庭生命周期联系起来。文中还探讨了使用该模型推荐的心理社会干预措施。
