An e-Learning Intervention for Professionals to Promote Family-Centered Cancer Care When a Significant Caregiver for Children Is at End of Life: Mixed Methods Evaluation Study
The systematic and iterative person-based approach optimized the acceptability of a novel e-learning intervention, having the potential to promote family-centered supportive end-of-life cancer care. This accessible e-learning intervention makes an important contribution to the recognized global gap of educational interventions in this field. Equipping professionals with family-centered supportive end-of-life care improves self-efficacy and preparedness to engage in challenging conversations, with the potential to promote better outcomes for affected adults and children and mediate adverse outcomes for adults and children before and after bereavement.
