Psychoeducation Intervention
The participants in the intervention group will receive six sessions of psychoeducation intervention, lasting 60 minutes per session for six weeks. The intervention will be provided face-to-face using lectures and discussions. There will also be sharing of experience by the caregivers of children with cancer and a sharing by a caregiver of a childhood cancer survivor. The group format has been chosen to enable caregivers to offer emotional support to each other. The intervention has four components: cancer education, coping skills training, stress management techniques training, and psychological support. The intervention group will also receive the usual care.
