Abstract:
Due to recent advances in biomedical science and technology, infants and children with complex medical needs and disabling conditions are surviving and being cared for at home more than ever before. Sociocultural influences and economic policies place mothers in the home as primary caregivers of children. Their caregiving work is largely invisible. The information provided in this paper is intended to make the work of mothering a child with disabilities more visible while alerting nurses to the impact of this trend on mothers. Strategies to minimize the negative consequences are included.
