Esto incluye la importancia de involucrar la familia en el tratamiento. Este artículo pretende: 1) explorar la reacción de los familiares ante el diagnóstico y tratamiento de la paciente de cáncer de mama, 2) explorar el impacto del apoyo recibido por los familiares, y 3) la importancia del involucramiento familiar en el tratamiento. Este estudio establece la necesidad de proveer servicios de salud, no solo a la paciente, sino también al sistema familiar. Es recomendado que la familia explore los sentimientos y miedos relacionados al cáncer, fomentar la comunicación, evaluar el impacto de la enfermedad a nivel estructural y re-organizar el sistema a partir del diagnóstico.</span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: ES-PR; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"> </span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: ES-PR; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">Abstract</span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: ES-PR; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">Recently, the importance of considering Hispanic cultural values while working with breast cancer patients has been established. This includes involving the patient’s family in the treatment. This article’s objectives are: 1) to explore the family’s reaction regarding the diagnosis of the patient, 2) to explore the impact of the patient´s family support, and 3) the importance of the family members’ involvement in the treatment. This study confirms the importance of delivering health services, not only to the patient, but also to her family system. It is important to help them explore their feelings and fears about the cancer, encourage communication, assess the impact of the illness on the structural level and encourage the re-organization of the system after the diagnosis.</span></span></span></span></p>}, number={1}, journal={Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology}, author={Yomarie and Rosario}, year={2013}, month={Jun.} }
