Pediatric home healthcare (HHC) services can offer vital support, yet little is known about parental experiences in Greece. Guided by Meleis' Transition Theory, this qualitative phenomenological study explored the lived experiences of seven mothers whose children received HHC from Floga, a pediatric oncology organization in Athens. Semi-structured interviews were conducted in April-May 2024, and data were analyzed using Braun and Clarke's thematic analysis, supported by Atlas.ti. One overarching theme emerged: \"Becoming a parent again thanks to HHC,\" capturing how HHC eased the transition from hospital to home by helping mothers reclaim their parental role. Two sub-themes illustrated this: (A) \"Reintegration into life at home: returning to normality, a God-sent gift.\" highlighting restored routines, emotional relief, and trust in HHC nurses; and (B) \"Emotional healing and managing fears through the 'hug' of HHC,\" describing lingering trauma and the sense of safety HHC provided. Mothers also identified unmet needs, including limited psychosocial support and staffing constraints. Overall, HHC enhanced family well-being; by offering emotional stability, practical assistance, and supportive transitions. Strengthening pediatric HHC in Greece will require greater investment in staffing, psychosocial resources, and equitable access.","PeriodicalId":37842,"journal":{"name":"Home healthcare now","volume":"44 2","pages":"85-96"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147327256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With an aging population and increasing care complexities, the OHT identified challenges in transitions from hospital to home for older adults. To better understand these experiences, the OHT steering committee partnered with the Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO) to conduct a quality assessment study focused on person- and family-centred care during discharge planning. Using a holistic descriptive case study approach, the project team followed three older adult participants through observation and in-depth interviews to examine how interactions between clinicians, patients, and families reflected core principles of person- and family-centred care. Findings highlighted the vulnerability associated with hospital-to-home transitions and emphasized the need for enhanced support and resources during this period. Although participants generally reported satisfaction with their care and positive therapeutic relationships, several improvement opportunities were identified. Key recommendations include providing targeted education on effective communication with older adults, adopting standardized communication tools, and prioritizing home safety assessments before discharge to ensure appropriate equipment selection and fit. These strategies can strengthen transition processes and improve experiences for older adults within the OHT.","PeriodicalId":37842,"journal":{"name":"Home healthcare now","volume":"44 2","pages":"75-84"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147327389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This pilot study examined the effects of an 8-week online Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program on psychological burden and well-being among family caregivers of people with dementia. Data from 39 caregivers (78.0%) who completed the intervention were analyzed. Participants had a mean age of 53.18 ± 13.33 years, with 30.8% being men; 61.5% were adult children and 38.5% were spouses or siblings of the person with dementia. At baseline, more than half of the caregivers (53.8%) reported moderate to severe psychological distress. Following the intervention, caregivers demonstrated significant improvements, including reduced perceived burden, lower levels of depression, anxiety, and stress, and improved functional engagement. These findings indicate that online MBSR is a feasible and accessible intervention that may meaningfully reduce psychological burden among family caregivers of people with dementia. Given its virtual delivery and low resource requirements, MBSR has the potential to be integrated into routine caregiver support services, particularly for those with limited access to in-person interventions. Further research involving larger and more diverse caregiver populations is needed to confirm the durability of these benefits and to guide broader implementation.","PeriodicalId":37842,"journal":{"name":"Home healthcare now","volume":"44 2","pages":"110-115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147327382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
