Coproduced resources to support parents caring for children with gastrostomies.

Objective: To describe and disseminate a package of support for parents who care for children with gastrostomies, consisting of a library of videos and resources to support families from referral for gastrostomy surgery, to long-term support at home.

Methods: The resources were systematically developed and evaluated by parents, hospital and community-based nurses, paediatricians, a surgeon and researchers.

Results: The videos empower families, reduce their anxiety and increase their confidence, providing support throughout the families' journey.

Coproducing a library of videos to support families caring for children with gastrostomies: A mixed-methods evaluation with family carers and clinicians.

The aim of this study was to evaluate a library of videos, coproduced with parents and healthcare professionals, to support and educate families caring for a child with a gastrostomy.
