To illuminate the experience of an altered social context for patients with primary brain tumours living away from home while undergoing proton beam therapy.
A descriptive, qualitative cross-sectional interview study.
Nineteen patients were interviewed between December 2015-August 2016, either during ( = 7) or before and after ( = 12) their proton beam therapy. A hermeneutical analysis was performed.
Participants made adjustments to achieve control and well-being during the treatment period. The analysis also revealed two interrelated patterns that helped participants adjust: being part of the family from a distance and seeking affinity.
It is important that patients receiving treatment far from home find a way to remain a part of their family and find affinity in the altered social context. Health professionals can prepare patients for the treatment period and can implement interventions to promote well-being for both patients and their relatives.
