Social implications of rheumatoid arthritis in young mothers. 1979

M A Chamberlain

A brief survey of the difficulties facing a mother of pre-school children has been made. The time from 1 to 2 1/2 years is probably most demanding of the mother's patience and energy. Much can be done to support the family by adequate control of the disease, splinting and sparing of involved joints and provision of an easily maintained home, children's clothes and attention to environmental design. Domestic help, education of the husband, playgroup for the child and correct family spacing are all helpful.
