家庭护理人员是护理的主要提供者。需要教育和支持，使他们为癌症的复杂的身体，心理，社会和精神影响做好准备。这项随机临床试验测试了240名家庭照顾者的姑息治疗干预措施，重点是报告癌症和治疗带来经济压力的家庭照顾者。一个由四部分组成的教育计划表明，干预组在客观负担、生活准备和生活质量方面的结果有所改善。为了满足癌症患者的整体需求以及提高护理人员的自我护理能力，高级从业人员在为护理人员提供量身定制的心理教育和支持方面的作用非常重要。
Family caregivers are the primary providers of care. Education and support are needed to prepare them for the complex physical, psychological, social, and spiritual effects of cancer. This randomized clinical trial tested a palliative care intervention with 240 family caregivers, focusing on family caregivers who reported financial strain from cancer and treatment. A four-part educational program demonstrated improved outcomes in the intervention group in the measures of objective burden, caregiving preparation, and quality of life. The role of advanced practitioners in providing tailored psychoeducation and support to caregivers is important in order to meet the integral needs of patients with cancer as well as to enhance caregiver self-care.
