Description

Care improves when families are treated as partners, and nurses' attitudes decide how far that partnership goes. Cristina Alfaro-Diaz and co-authors surveyed those attitudes in this 2024 study. Two hundred fifty-three working nurses answered a standard scale on family importance in care. Work stress and beliefs about illness were also measured.

Attitudes were positive overall, with a mean score near the top of the scale. Nurses in outpatient clinics, those with a master's degree, and those on family-oriented units scored most supportive. Regression analysis sorted which factors mattered once others were held steady. Training and unit culture both look like levers. Hospitals aiming at family-centered care can start with the units where attitudes lag.
