Abstract

Breast cancer has been increasing and it is often resulted to the death among women in Indonesia. Like other cancer patients, the quality of life among breast cancer patients is assumed being affected. However, previous study found that individual’s quality of life can be increased by family support. This study aims to explore the impact of family support to quality of life among breast cancer patients in Indonesia. A cross-sectional study is conducted to 102 participants. Family support is measured by the Sources of Social Support Scale (SSSS) and quality of life is measured by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer-Quality of Life Questionnaire Core-30 (EORTC QLQ-C-30). This study found a significant impact on family support towards every dimension of quality of life among breast cancer patients. The finding implies that breast cancer patients need their family as their support system to support their condition after being diagnosed.
