abstract="INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to better understand the family resilience process following a severe traumatic brain injury during adolescence. CASE  PRESENTATION: Inspired by the humanistic model of nursing care as a disciplinary  perspective, this study used a qualitative and inductive case study design. MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOME: The data analysis yielded six themes as well as four  subthemes that illustrate this family's resilience process. The most important  factors that emerged are (a) family characteristics (i.e., a fighter personality,  cultural and spiritual beliefs, presence of hope, keeping a sense of humor), (b)  support of family members, (c) support of friends, (d) practicing sports and leisure  activities, (e) back-to-school support, and (f) feeling helpful to the adolescent. <br><br>DISCUSSION: This study provides interesting avenues with regard to the  implementation of strategies to foster the resilience process in families during  particularly difficult situations in their lives, such as a traumatic brain injury  during adolescence.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
