RECRUITING

The Impact of the Family Room App on Caregivers

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Engaging families in patient care during serious illness can enhance care quality, reduce social isolation, boost satisfaction, and lower healthcare costs. However, active involvement of family caregivers remains limited because there are no evidence-based tools to guide clinicians on how to include them effectively. This study will test and refine previously developed point-of-care application, Family Room, and determine its effectiveness by comparison with a control group. A series of surveys will be used to evaluate caregiver well-being, engagement and satisfaction.
