Medical decision-making in child care presents unique challenges that can significantly impact parents' psychological well-being. This paper highlights the urgent need to integrate personalized strategies into medical decision-making to alleviate anxiety and foster post-traumatic growth. It advocates for longitudinal studies to explore the long-term effects of personalized approaches in medical decision-making. By equipping healthcare providers with training on effectively engaging parents, healthcare systems can create a more inclusive support environment that strengthens family psychological resilience. In this way, parents feel valued and trusted as integral members of the care team, which can significantly reduce their sense of helplessness and enhance emotional resilience during their child's medical care. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.
