Quality of life is a complex concept that includes a person’s physical, psychological, and social well—being. In recent years, researchers have been paying more and more attention to studying the quality of life not only of patients, but also of their families. The aim of the study is to identify the relationship between the quality of life of parents and the length of stay of children in an infectious diseases hospital. To achieve this goal, a comprehensive study was conducted at the Children’s City Infectious Diseases Hospital in Yekaterinburg. The research used a specialized SF-36 questionnaire, mathematical methods and statistical data processing from a single digital platform. The results of the study showed that the quality of life of parents worsens with an increase in the frequency and duration of hospitalization of children in an infectious diseases hospital. Correlation analysis showed an inverse relationship between the quality of life of parents and the frequency and duration of hospitalization of their children. Conclusion.
Keywords: quality of life, frequency of hospitalizations, infectious diseases hospital.
