Summary

This study developed and tested a program to help nurses better support relatives of patients with acquired brain injury or malignant brain tumors. The program included nurse training, a dialog tool, a peer support list, videos, and documentation guidelines. Researchers tested it with 35 relatives across seven hospital units in Denmark to see if it improved how involved and supported caregivers felt.

Who is studied

The study is conducted in six inpatient units in two hospice sites in Denmark that admitted adult patients with respectively acquired brain injury and malignant brain tumor. Acquired brain injuries often occur suddenly and unexpectedly. Suffering from an acquired brain injury has major consequences, not only for the patients, due to the devastating impact on their physical, cognitive, social, and psychological well-being, but also for the relatives who may need to take on a lifelong role as carers
