"Cancer Caregivers" reveals the field of psycho-oncology's exploration of the depth of complexities of caregiving experiences and identifies the vast expanses left to be understood. This text describes the characteristics and experiences of cancer caregivers based on their life stage, relationship to the patient, and ethnic group membership, as well as patients' disease and treatment type. It highlights the significant progress in research focused on the development and dissemination of psychosocial interventions for cancer caregivers and includes in-depth case studies to illustrate their delivery and application. The text also explores the provision of support to caregivers in the community and the legal and ethical concerns faced by caregivers throughout the caregiving trajectory. "Cancer Caregivers" offers both fundamental and practical information and is the essential resource for all healthcare professionals who work with patients and families facing cancer. -- From publisher's description.
