All research work was iteratively processed from March 2003 to December 2004.RESULTS:
Constant comparative analysis of the data yielded the process of becoming a successful family caregiver encountering the differences and chaos as novice; constructing their world of skilled caregivers; and becoming a hospital family as experienced caregivers. During the process of becoming an experienced hospital family, the discourse of family centered idea guided their caring behaviors and daily lives.CONCLUSION:
