The benefits of empowered families in pediatric care are multifaceted:
- Improved Health Outcomes: Children tend to have better health outcomes when their families are knowledgeable and engaged. - Reduced Anxiety: Families who understand their child's condition and treatment plan are less likely to experience anxiety and stress. - Enhanced Satisfaction: Both families and healthcare providers report higher levels of satisfaction when there is a collaborative approach. - Better Adherence: Families are more likely to follow treatment plans accurately when they understand the rationale behind them.
