| Summary: | Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the parents of hospitalized children’s perceptions of family-centered care and their hospital anxiety-depression levels, and factors that affect it. Materials and Methods: The research design is the descriptive crosssectional type. The study data were collected from the parents of pediatric patients who were hospitalized in the pediatric department of a tertiary education institution in a city center for at least 3 days. The data were evaluated with the SPSS program for statistical analysis, and p values were accepted as <0.05 for statistical significance. Result: The average age of the parents was 33.32±6.84 years, and the average age of the children was 3.98±3.10 years. The mean scores obtained from the importance and consistency sub-dimensions of the Family-Centered Care Scale were 29.60±3.05 and 30.13±3.27, respectively. The mean scores of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale anxiety and depression sub-dimensions were 9.05±4.26 and 7.44±4.03, respectively, and the rates of anxiety and depression risk were 39.9% and 47.5%, respectively. A statistically negative and significant correlation was found between the scores obtained from the importance and consistency subdimensions of the Family-Centered Care Scale and the scores of the anxiety and depression sub-dimensions of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (p<0.05). Conclusion: The participants’ perception of family-centered care was high, and their anxiety and depression risk rates were moderate. It was observed that as the parents’ perception of family-centered care increased, the levels of hospital-based anxiety and depression decreased. |
