Background and Aim: Taking care of patients with cancer often occurs at home and by family caregivers. However, this group of caregivers does not receive the necessary training on how to provide care at home. The present study aims to compare the effects of face-to-face and Telenursing training methods on the quality of family caregiver’s services for cancer patients.
Materials and Methods: In this interventional study 103 family caregivers of cancer patients were randomly divided into three groups of control (N= 35), face-to-face (N= 34), and telenursing (N= 34). The control group only received the routine training, and while the face-to-face and telenursing groups were trained for 12 weeks. Quality of care was measured using a researcher-made questionnaire with two subs scales; physical and psycosocial before and after intervention. Chi-square, Fisher's exact, ANOVA and LSD tests were used for data analysis. All analytical steps were performed using SPSS16 software.
Results: There were not significant differenc between three groups demographic characteristic (p>0.05). After intervention, the total quality score for the care of patients in face-to-face (166.13 ± 13.91) and telenursing (157.76 ± 17.24) groups was significantly higher than the control group (82.51 ± 16.84) (p < 0.001).
Conclusion: The results of the study showed that the two methods of training were effective on the quality of care among family caregivers of patients with cancer to a similar extent. It is recommended nurses used telephone, social network and face to face method in patient education. In addition, hospitals establishment a ward for education and patient follow up.
