Abstract
Introduction: hospitalization of a child is one of the main causes of parent’s anxiety. Regarding the importance of providing family-based care, it is necessary for nurses to support and understand parents’ needs to provide them. This study aimed to determine the role of nursing support in providing the needs of hospitalized children mothers. Method: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study. 250 mothers of children hospitalized in pediatric ward of Hamadan Besat Hospital, were selected by available method in 2017. Data was collected using “nursing support from parents”, “needs of children parents” and demographic characteristics questionnaire. Data was analyzed by SPSS16 using descriptive and Pearson correlation analysis. Results: The mean and standard deviation of the score of all needs was 38.9 ± 10.6. The maximum score was related to mutual trust (9.0 ± 2.8) and the minimum was related to support guidance and counseling (5.1 ± 2.1). The overall support received by mothers from nurses was 68.3 ± 16.2. Most of support was related to self-confidence (14.4 ± 3.5) and the least was emotional support (8.2 ± 2.8). There was a significant positive correlation between nurses support from parents and the total score of mothers’ needs (r = 0.448, P=0.001). Conclusion: Considering the low mean and standard deviation of some nursing support areas from parents and meeting the needs of parents, it seems necessary to plan for the provision of family-based care by nurses and their support from parents to meet their needs to improve the quality of children care.
