The focus of cancer patient care has moved from the hospital to the home as a result of shortened acute-care stays and subsequent early discharges. Thus, family members and friends frequently must assume the caregiving role. Research has provided information regarding who in the family assumes the responsibility for care of the cancer patient, the needs of these family caregivers, community resources available, and service gaps within the present health care system.
由于急性护理住院时间缩短以及随后的提前出院,癌症患者护理的重点已从医院转移到家庭。因此,家庭成员和朋友常常必须承担起护理的角色。研究提供了有关家庭中谁承担癌症患者护理责任、这些家庭护理人员的需求、可用的社区资源以及当前医疗保健系统内的服务差距等方面的信息。
