Abstract
To assess rationale for usage and types of complementary and integrative health therapies used as self-care by unpaid cancer caregivers. CINAHL, PubMed, PsycINFO, Embase, and Alt HealthWatch. Six articles provide updated information on caregiver preferences and desires relative to use of complementary and integrative health therapies. Findings largely focused on patients; whereas perceptions of caregivers were secondary. Given shifts in cancer care from clinics to home, clinicians can increase their effectiveness through a better understanding of the caregiving experience, allowing for delivery of supportive, personalized interventions. Such support may include evidence-based complementary and integrative health therapies for caregivers.
