Experiences of caregivers of children with severe self‐injurious behavior: An interpretive, descriptive study
Our study provides insights into the patterns of experiences of family caregivers of children with SIB. These results have far-reaching implications ranging from the clinical need for enhanced care and collaboration with affected families, the call for researchers to further develop effective treatments, and lastly highlighting the need to work with policymakers to advocate for resources to support children with SIB and their families.
