What is it about?
This study explores what contributes to the well-being of school-age children with cerebral palsy (CP) from the viewpoint of their caregivers. It investigates various factors, including the child's abilities, family dynamics, environmental challenges, and support systems, to understand and enhance the children's health-related quality of life (HRQoL).

Why is it important?
By identifying predictors of HRQoL, the research offers valuable insights for caregivers, clinicians, and policymakers. The findings emphasise the importance of continuous support for children's development, addressing environmental barriers, and improving family-centred rehabilitation care. Additionally, the study sheds light on the need for supportive laws and policies, especially in regions like Serbia.
