Abstract:
This article reviews contemporary literature on home care of the seriously ill child with complex care needs and the sick child/parent dyad. The literature search revealed three major themes, namely the increasing acuity of child illness, the evolving role of the parent as care provider, and the health professional as care provider. While there is much known about the complexity of care of children and the role of family in that care, little is known about what families require in terms of support and sustenance during the long years of care provision.

Abstract:
Conducting research in a familiar site of crisis brings about feelings of resonance between a researcher and participants. After 11 months of shadowing a pediatric palliative care team and 20 interviews with parents and grandparents of seriously ill children, the author, also the parent of a medically complex child, searched for creative ways to explore her findings. In this exploration of life as the parent of a seriously ill hospitalized child, the researcher reflects on her participants’ and her own collective experiences and frustrations in the form of poetry.

Parents are commonly responsible for making health care decisions for their seriously ill children in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU); however, the factors influencing their decisions may vary.

Traditionally adult psychiatrists have been more concerned with their patient's family of origin than with the family of procreation. When considering the management of the seriously mentally ill, the family is regarded as a potential source of stress or care, and little attention is given to the role of the patient as a parent (Rutter, 1966; Bennett, 1996). This position is exemplified by the absence of questions relating to childcare on the Health of the Nation Outcome Scale (HoNOS; Wing et al, 1995).
