Abstract: Familial caregivers play a crucial role in the care of children with cancer, from initial diagnosis through treatment, remission, recurrence, and end-of-life care. Caregiving impacts various aspects of a caregiver’s life. A holistic approach and support for caregivers significantly influence their well-being, as well as the recovery and quality of care provided to patients. This Community Service (PkM) program aims to enhance the knowledge and empower 28 familial caregivers of children with cancer through health education on physical and psychological management in their role as caregivers. The methods used included presentations, interactive discussions, and a demonstration of a technique for maintaining mental health. The effectiveness of the Community Service Program was evaluated through pre-tests and post-tests using a questionnaire consisting of 10 questions regarding knowledge about the physical and psychological management as caregivers.The implementation of this PkM program for caregivers at two patient shelters yielded a very positive response evidenced by increased knowledgewith measurement results showing an average score increase of 30 points—from 45 on the pre-test to 75 on the post-test. This improvement indicates that the health education provided to caregivers enhanced their knowledge. It is hoped that this PkM activity can improve caregivers’ readiness to face various challenges, particularly physical and psychological ones.
