Abstract

The lack of research devoted to understanding the specific home health care work that mothers of children with cancer perform necessitates research in the area. This study examines the health care activities that mothers of children with cancer must assume in the home (eg, nursing care such as the administration of medicines, protecting the immune-suppressed child from concurrent illness, watching for side effects, record keeping, scheduling checkups and treatments). The implications for public policy of the extent and nature of home and lay health care in the hospital, clinic, and home are discussed.

摘要

缺乏致力于了解癌症患儿母亲所承担的特定家庭医疗护理工作的研究，这使得该领域的研究成为必要。本研究考察了癌症患儿母亲在家庭中必须承担的医疗护理活动（例如，护理工作，如给药、保护免疫抑制的孩子免受并发疾病侵害、留意副作用、记录保存、安排检查和治疗）。文中还讨论了医院、诊所和家庭中家庭及非专业医疗护理的范围和性质对公共政策的影响。
