Résumé

Prior research suggests family-centered interventions are among the least taught yet most needed skills for practicing psychiatry. In this study, we evaluated whether having mental health trainees lead a sibling support group could serve as a method to promote family-centered care among trainees. All trainees in psychiatry, psychology, and social work were invited to participate as sibling support group facilitators. Both facilitator and non-facilitator trainees were then surveyed using a questionnaire inquiring about exposure to family-centered care, comfort level in providing family-centered care, attitudes regarding the importance of family-centered care, and desire to provide family-centered care in the future. A second survey was administered to the facilitator trainees to assess their perceptions of the sibling group leader experience. Facilitator trainees reported increased engagement in family-centered activities during training (p < 0.05), expressed greater confidence in their family-centered care skills (p < 0.05), and reported stronger intentions to practice in a family-centered way (p < 0.05). Facilitator trainees were overwhelmingly positive about their experience with the sibling support program and reported it strengthened their commitment to addressing the needs of siblings as a part of family-centered care. Facilitating a sibling support group may be an effective way for mental health trainees to gain skills and confidence in delivering family-centered care. Mental health training programs aiming to imbue trainees with the importance of family-centered care may consider creating opportunities for trainees to facilitate sibling support groups.
