When a child is newly diagnosed with cancer, parents report feeling overwhelmed with the amount of information that they must process in order to safely care for their child at home. The Children’s Oncology Group (COG) Nursing Discipline has focused on examining current practices for educating families of children newly diagnosed with cancer, and developing tools to enhance the process of patient/family education at the time of diagnosis, including development of a COG Standardized Education Checklist, which classifies education into primary, secondary, and tertiary topics. The COG Nursing Discipline awarded nursing fellowships to two doctorally prepared nurses practicing at two distinct COG institutions to evaluate the checklist implementation. This project addressed the primary topics on the checklist essential to safely care for the child at home following the first hospital discharge. Checklist feasibility was determined by the proportion of checklists completed. Checklist fidelity was determined by review of documentation on the checklist regarding educational topics covered, learner preferences, and methods used. Checklist acceptability was assessed through parent/caregiver and nurse feedback. Project implementation occurred over a 5-month period and involved 69 newly diagnosed families. Implementation of the checklist was feasible (81%), with moderate fidelity to checklist topics taught across the two sites. Verbal instruction and written documentation were the most prevalent form of education. The return rate for the parent/caregiver and nurse acceptability questionnaires was moderate to low (68% and 12%, respectively), parent/caregiver feedback was positive and acceptability among responding nurses was high, with 92% of nurses identifying the primary checklist as useful.
