AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To investigate the support needs identified by Taiwanese breast cancer diagnosed mothers for themselves and their 6-12-year-old children for implementation in a support group.
BACKGROUND: Mothers with dependent children are burdened with diverse child-centered concerns while battling breast cancer. A better understanding of the concomitant support needs of mothers and their children can yield tailored support for ill mothers and their children.
DESIGN: A qualitative descriptive study employing content analysis of collected data.
METHODS: Between February and June of 2020, semi-structured individual interviews were conducted with 20 mothers who had been diagnosed with breast cancer in the last 2 years. Qualitative content analysis was used. This study followed the COREQ guidelines.
RESULTS: Ill mothers favoured a hybrid format for support groups, consisting of mother-only, child-only, and mother-child group sessions. The content analysis yielded four themes for mother-only group sessions: (1) learning to reach out to children; (2) dealing with negative emotions; (3) how to say goodbye to children; and (4) resetting for the future. Three themes related to child-only group sessions emerged: (1) emotional and health education; (2) getting along with a sick mother; and (3) preparing for uncertainty. The core theme for mother-child group sessions was relationship enhancement.
CONCLUSION: The findings revealed that mother-reported support needs of ill mothers and their children included support for improving children's emotional well-being and mothers' emotional coping, preparing for uncertainty, and promoting intimacy in the mother-child relationship.
RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: A relation-focused approach to psychosocial support group development that allows mother-child mutual influences on each other's coping to be addressed bilaterally is suggested.
PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Mothers diagnosed with breast cancer were interviewed for data collection and invited to review and validate the synthesised data for enhancing the credibility of the study.
