Identifying the factors influencing parental adaptation helps the medical staff to make the necessary interventions to support the parents. According to this study, increasing parent access to the required information, supporting them financially and emotionally, and helping them identify support resources can facilitate their adaptation to their child's chronic illness. Also, identifying and eliminating adaptation barriers can help parents deal better with their child's chronic disease.
