Methods: “Family-Centered Care Scale” and “Parental Support Scale” were used as data collection tools in the study. The sample of the study consisted of 155 voluntary parents of all children who applied to the pediatric units of a private foundation university hospital in Istanbul and had hospitalized for three days or more, volunteering to participate. Results: 80% of the parents participating in the study were women. Within the scope of the study, the average point of “Matching Percentage” in the “Family Centered Care Scale” was found to be 70.1 ± 38.9 and the total score average of the “Nurse Parent Support Scale” was 84.8 ± 15.2. Statistically significant difference was found between the educational level of parents in sample group, parents’ employment status, length of stay in the hospital, and the unit where child was hospitalized (p<0,05). Conclusion: It was determined that the nurses related to family-centered care practices were satisfied with the care they gave to parents and children, and as the level of support provided to parents increased, parental participation in family-centered care increased. In line with these results, nurses should accept the role of parents in family-centered care and support parents in line with their needs.
