Narrative E-Writing Intervention (NeW-I) for Parents of Children With Chronic Life-Threatening Illness

Narrative e-Writing Intervention (NeW-I) is an evidence-based, strength-focused and meaning-oriented approach that aims at enhancing well-being, alleviating burden, and reducing adverse grief outcomes among Singaporean parents caring for a child with chronic life-threatening illness. In collaboration with KK Women's and Children's Hospital and Club Rainbow Singapore, a pilot randomized controlled trial with a built-in qualitative evaluation and feasibility study will be carried out to assess the efficacy of the therapist-facilitated NeW-I protocol and platform among a purposive sample of 66 participants. The findings generated will form the foundation for a full-scale RCT for advancing paediatric palliative care and parental bereavement support.
