How To Help Families Support Children With Chronic Illness? A Health Psychology Podcast Episode.
As a teaching assistant at a special educational needs school and my job is mainly to oversee the treatment and management of a Type 1 Diabetic child, I can see the massive negative impact that chronic illness has on children, their families and their social life. As well as I am a massive supporter of Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory that proposes what happens to a child in different microsystems (like family, school and friendships) are all interconnected and impact a child’s learning and development. Equally, in my experience as a teaching assistant, a chronic illness diagnosis is immensely stressful for parents, it puts a strain on family relationships and it can even cause anger in the parent child relationship. Especially, when a chronically ill child wishes their parents never took them to the hospital to get diagnosed. That is something I see a lot in my work. Therefore, in this clinical psychology and health psychology podcast episode, you’ll learn how to help families support children with chronic illness, why chronic illness is hard on families and how parents can look after themselves during this immensely stressful time. If you enjoy learning about health psychology, mental health and chronic illness, then this will be a great episode for you.
