Summary

To examine the family-centered service characteristics of physiotherapy and rehabilitation services received by children with cerebral palsy (CP) and to investigate the affecting factors.

Detailed description

Children with Cerebral Palsy (CP) attend special education and rehabilitation centers to receive physiotherapy and rehabilitation (PT) services, and it is very important for parents to be informed about the services offered in these centers. Our aim in the study was to examine which factors affect family-centered characteristics and parental perceptions in the PT services received by children with CP. For this purpose, 100 children diagnosed with CP between the ages of 2-18 and their parents were included in the study. The Measure of Processes Care (MPOC) survey was used to assess parents' perceptions of the family-centered features of (PT) services. These perceptions were examined to determine whether they vary depending on the child's age, functional level, parents' educational status, the impact of their disabled children, and health-related quality of life. The Family Impact Scale was used to measure parents' level of influence from their disabled children, and the Nottingham Health Profile survey was used to evaluate their health-related quality of life.
