Study start date: February 10, 2025

Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

This study aims to explore how providing structured educational support to the family members of patients receiving chemotherapy can impact their overall health, eating habits, and mental well-being. The focus is on understanding if educating family members can help them manage stress better, improve their nutritional choices, and enhance their psychological state. Such education could be crucial in supporting families who are caring for loved ones undergoing cancer treatment, potentially leading to better overall family health and well-being. Participants in this study will be divided into two groups: one receiving the educational support and the other not. The education will include topics like self-confidence, healthy eating, and managing stress. The study will measure the effects using various tools at the beginning, middle, and end of the study period. These tools will assess changes in family health, adherence to a healthy diet, and levels of psychological well-being. The results will help determine if the educational program is beneficial in improving these aspects for the families involved. Statistical tests will be used to analyze the data and understand the outcomes of the educational intervention.
