Edukacja dzieci i młodzieży z chorobą nowotworową jako czynnik wsparcia

Abstract

Leaving biological determinism, child’s cancerous disease is nowadays presented in a humanistic way. The meaning of a proper care and therapeutic and educational effects are particularly stressed as factors that prevent the child’s development from negative effects of the disease. That’s why it is proposed, that the child should, during all stages of treatment, be exposed to comprehensive rehabilitation in both somatic and mental aspects of his life. Regarding the mental side, one of its most vital complementary parts is education, because it contains important therapeutic background and is an essential supporting factor.
