"It's part of our life now": a qualitative exploration of the social eating experiences of family members of patients living with head and neck cancer.

FMs experience many demands and tensions, having to balance the psychological impact they experience, which are often minimised, whilst attempting to find the best ways to support, protect and encourage their loved ones to adjust and adapt to social eating changes. Therefore, interventions need to support FMs' challenges and equip them to know how to best support patients living with HNC and themselves.
