Nurses serve as educators, advocates, and providers of emotional support for mothers in managing the unique health and developmental challenges their children face. From early diagnosis, nursing care can facilitate the mother's understanding of the conditions and their implications, providing vital information that promotes informed decision-making. Nurses can guide mothers by identifying developmental milestones, care needs, and available resources, thereby creating a supportive environment for both the child and the family .it can be said that the mothers of children with Down syndrome should be considered in nursing care programs just as much as the children themselves, and their physical and mental health should not be overlooked. The necessity of nursing care for mothers of children with Down syndrome goes beyond basic medical support. This support includes educational empowerment, emotional resilience, and comprehensive health strategies. By addressing the health complexities and challenges faced by children with Down syndrome and the burdens borne by their mothers, nursing care can create a supportive ecosystem where the needs of the family can also be acknowledged and met. Attending to the needs of mothers in care programs enhances their ability to fulfill the multifaceted responsibilities of raising a child with Down syndrome, leading to better outcomes for both the mothers and their children. Ultimately, recognizing and addressing the diverse needs of mothers through targeted nursing care is key to promoting healthier families.
