The Hanen Parent Programme: a parent's perspective.

Abstract

In 1997 Salford Community Healthcare Trust embarked on a research project (funded by NHS Executive North West Region) to investigate how viable the Hanen Parent Programme (HPP) (Manolson 1992) was in terms of its effectiveness and suitability for an inner-city UK population in comparison with clinic-based, direct intervention. An important component of that research project involved exploring the parents' perceptions of the therapy they had undertaken. In this paper are summarised the areas in which there were marked differences between parents' experiences and perceptions of therapy as a result of the type of intervention they received. Clinical implications are discussed.

Frequency and difficulty in caregiving among spouses of individuals with cancer: effects of adult attachment and gender.

How caregivers relate to care recipients can affect how well care is provided and how much burden is experienced in providing it. We conceptualized the relationship of spousal caregivers via adult attachment theory and examined how attachment qualities of caregivers related to level of caregiving involvement and difficulties in caregiving. Gender differences in the associations were also explored. From participants in the ACS Quality of Life Survey for Caregivers, 400 spousal caregivers provided valid data for the study variables. Findings indicated that frequency of various types of care was a joint function of attachment orientation and gender. In contrast, the difficulty that caregivers experienced in providing care related directly to attachment, without moderation by gender. Our findings suggest that ineffective caregivers of cancer patients, who can be identified by their attachment orientation and/or gender, may benefit from educational programs to improve their caregiving skills and to encourage them to utilize resources from other family members or community.

The public's belief about biology.

This short review is concerned with a topic that has been neglected and is still very poorly understood: what the general public think and believe about biology (including health and medicine, and bioethics), and, in particular, about biotechnology.
