It is important to encourage all family members to attend the meeting.However,it can be difficult to find a convenient time for all family members to attend.Many times late afternoon or evening appointments are necessary to accommodate the needs of the family.It is probably most important that the immediate,not necessarily the extended,family is present.If the nurse is making an appointment with a family this would be part of the role of the nurse,and it would be within the scope of the nurse's practice to make time to complete home visits.The nurse may need to be creative in how to best meet the needs of the family to arrange a meeting.The larger barrier is finding a common time,not distance of the family member.
