Abstract
Mothers and health professionals prioritised communication with children about the cancer diagnosis; however, health professionals and mothers differed in their views of parents' communication needs both in terms of the nature of the support/information needed and the delivery of this support/information. Mothers wanted easily accessible resources that were both instructive and practical. Mothers also emphasised quality over quantity of support. Health professionals were mostly aware of mothers' needs, however, emphasised less instructive support and information. This study highlights the need for improved coordination and tailoring of psychosocial resources and supports for these parents and families communicating about a cancer diagnosis with their young children.
