The present study aimed to examine the effect of a family-centered training program on patients under home invasive mechanical ventilation. A total of 60 adult patients under invasive mechanical ventilation were selected and randomly allocated into two groups. The supportive home care program consisting of six training sessions using a teach-back technique and follow up training at home. The rate of hospital readmission and mortality in the intervention group was significantly lower than the control group(P = .02 and P = .03, respectively). Moreover, the home caregivers' level of knowledge in the intervention group was significantly higher than that of the control group(P = 0/000). In addition, implementing the intervention effectively increased home caregivers' ability of functional skills. Therefore, comprehensive preparation of the patient and family before discharge and coherent support and continuity of care after discharge with the effective presence of nurses.
