Characteristics of the relationship that develops from nurse‐caregiver communication during telecare

ConclusionsThe flexibility of the service allows the possibility of engaging in a close, or to some extent, a more distant relationship, depending on the participants' attitudes towards using this type of service.

The support seems to help the caregivers cope with their own physical and emotional problems.
