Acronym
(NPST)

Description
Nurse-Parent Support Tool (NPST) designed to measure parents' perception of nursing support during their child's hospitalization. The NPST was based on the Nurse Parent Support Model developed from House's conceptualizations of four domains of support. Thus, the 21-item NPST assesses four dimensions of support: (1) supportive communication and provision of information related to the child's illness, treatments, care, and related issues; (2) parental esteem support focused on respecting, enhancing, and supporting the parental role; (3) emotional support to help the parents cope with their own emotional responses and needs related to the child's illness; and (4) caregiving support involving the quality of care provided to the child. Strong support for the content validity of the NPST derives from the steps used in constructing the instrument.
