Cancer Nursing, 03/09/09
Tang S et al. - Family caregivers whose relative died at home provided significantly more intensive assistance than their counterparts did, and caregiving more negatively impacted their finances. However, caregiving did not impact their health, daily schedule, perceived family support, or depressive symptoms to a greater negative extent. Instead, there is a trend for these caregivers to enjoy higher quality of life and to find more positive meaning in providing caregiving at home than do FCs whose relative died in hospital.
