Abstract

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of a tripartite collaborative nursing intervention in enhancing resilience among families of pediatric leukemia patients. Methods: Based on Walsh’s family resilience theory and collaborative nursing principles, and after reviewing a large amount of literature，a tripartite intervention was constructed, which was led by the nursing team, coordinated by medical social workers, and supported by volunteers. Caregivers of pediatric hematology inpatients at a tertiary-level Class A hospital were selected as research subjects. which were divided into a control group (n = 30) and an experimental group (n = 30) according to a randomized block design. The control group are treated with standard nursing care, which included health education, counseling, and psychological support from nurses. The experimental group, in addition, was provided with a tripartite collaborative nursing intervention for 3 months. Results: The family resilience level, social support, and family function scores of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P ≤ 0.05). Conclusion: The implementation of tripartite collaborative nursing intervention improves the resilience of families of children suffered from leukemia.
