Abstract
Background/Aims The literature on informal caregiving for cancer survivors focuses on the first phases of cancer survivorship, with little evidence on long-term issues. For those whose cancer creates on-going disability, caregiving can continue for decades. Mutuality, the positive quality of the relationship between caregiver and care receiver, can affect acceptance and level of caregiving as well as patient and caregiver outcomes. Because many colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with ostomies have ongoing caregiving needs, understanding mutuality in caregiving relationships in this population is a high priority.
