Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bringing in only the immediate family to limit stressors on the ill person is not included in functional coping as it may limit the social support and resources available to the family, which can be essential in managing the chronic illness. Functional coping typically includes working at keeping the family together, trying to understand the medical situation, and accepting any social support that is available.
