This approach treats families as active partners in care, making sure their values, beliefs, and strengths are included in treatment plans. Involving families in their child's care leads to better health outcomes, so it's essential for paediatric nurses to support and involve families throughout the care process. Focus on the child through the family centered care is the magic that creates major change in health and well-being. A key part of FCC is the nurse's presence, which helps build strong, trusting relationships through good communication. These connections improve the physical, emotional, and social well-being of both the child and their family by creating a supportive and understanding environment. Adding more care through the process of FCC is the key for early discharge. Although research shows a link between FCC and positive nursing relationships, more studies are needed to provide stronger evidence and improve family nursing care. Healthcare teams are also working together more than ever, recognizing that collaboration among professionals leads to better care for children. This teamwork has led to better health outcomes and strengthened the role of paediatric nurses as advocates for children's health. Skilled nurse will influence the family to be the part of care and planned treatment. FCC not only improves medical results but also builds a stronger partnership between healthcare providers and families. Family involvement is seen as essential for meeting a child’s needs and supporting the family as a whole. Providing family-centered care means recognizing that families are a constant part of a child’s life, relationships shape children’s well-being, and involving families in care leads to better outcomes for the child. FCC is the vital psychological support for the child. 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z http://13.232.72.61:8080/jspui/handle/123456789/10553 Title: A Study to Access the Anxiety Levels of the Patients Undergoing Magnetic Resonance Imaging at Selected Hospitals Bengaluru with a View to Develop an Information Booklet Authors: Murali, Megha; Keerthi Sudha, Perumalla; Nanjappan, Devi Abstract: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a widely used diagnostic procedure that, while safe and effective, often induces anxiety in patients due to its enclosed environment, loud noises, and unfamiliarity. This study was undertaken to assess the anxiety levels of patients undergoing MRI at selected hospitals in Bengaluru, with the aim of developing an information booklet to support anxiety reduction. A descriptive non-experimental design was adopted, and 50 patients were selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using a structured interview schedule and an anxiety rating scale. Results revealed that the majority of patients (58%) experienced moderate anxiety, followed by 30% with mild anxiety, and 12% with severe anxiety. The overall mean anxiety score was 31.46 (41.94%), indicating a moderate level of anxiety among participants. Statistical analysis showed that previous experience with MRI and the source of information about the procedure were significantly associated with anxiety levels, while demographic factors such as age, gender, education, and occupation had no significant association. The findings emphasize the importance of pre- procedure education, reassurance, and coping strategies to help patients manage anxiety. Based on the results, an information booklet was developed to enhance patient preparedness and cooperation during MRI procedures. The study concludes that structured education and supportive nursing interventions play a crucial role in alleviating MRI-related anxiety, ultimately improving diagnostic outcomes and patient well-being. 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z
