“Care that matters”: Family-centered care, caregiving burden, and adaptation in parents of children with cancer

Family-centered care (FCC) is a health-care delivery approach endorsing the support and participation of families. To date, little research has addressed the associations between FCC and adaptation outcomes specifically in the context of pediatric cancer. The main objective of this research is to identify the direct and indirect associations, through caregiving burden, between parents’ FCC and quality of life (QoL) and life satisfaction.
