Family members wish to be involved according to their preferences and capabilities. Such involvement creates meaningfulness, which further promotes family members' inherent strength. Healthcare professionals play a vital role, highlighting the advantages of adopting a person\u2010centred approach towards the family members by considering their resources, capabilities, and suffering, which vary over time and among different persons. To care for family members during patient weaning, healthcare professionals need to understand their needs and contributions, making the delivery of person\u2010centred care essential. This study highlights that person\u2010centred care extends beyond the patient to include family members. Recognising and supporting families as active partners in the weaning process is essential, as their involvement strengthens the well\u2010being of both patients and families.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Implications for the Profession and\/or Patient Care<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Healthcare professionals should recognise family members as active partners in the weaning process and adapt person\u2010centred care to their individual needs and capacities.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Patient or Public Contribution<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Only the family members of the patients were involved in the study.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Reporting Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study adhered to the COREQ criteria.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/nop2.70505","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,27]],"date-time":"2026-03-27T09:47:09Z","timestamp":1774604829000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Family Members' Experiences of Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation in Intensive Care: A Hermeneutic Phenomenological Study"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2260-3219","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Catarina","family":"Tingsvik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping Academy for Improvement of Health and Welfare J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping University  J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping Sweden"},{"name":"Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine Ryhov County Hospital  J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7406-8732","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jan","family":"M\u00e5rtensson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nursing Science, School of Health and Welfare J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping University  J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4358-7820","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fredrik","family":"Hammarskj\u00f6ld","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine Ryhov County Hospital  J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping Sweden"},{"name":"Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences Link\u00f6ping University  Link\u00f6ping Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9166-216X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria","family":"Henricson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping Academy for Improvement of Health and Welfare J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping University  J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping Sweden"},{"name":"Faculty of Caring Science, Work Life and Social Welfare University of Bor\u00e5s  Bor\u00e5s Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_15_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.iccn.2020.102808"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/ccm.0000000000002169"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijnurstu.2015.04.017"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejcnurse.2011.06.008"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/ccm.0000000000002175"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.iccn.2015.01.006"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/nop2.97"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cjca.2020.03.037"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/ccm.0000000000002624"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140\u20106736(16)30176\u20103"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hrtlng.2006.07.002"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.iccn.2017.01.007"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_14_1","volume-title":"The ICN Code of Ethics for Nurses","author":"International Council of Nurses","year":"2021"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcrc.2018.09.006"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_15_16_1","first-page":"220","article-title":"Overview of Family Needs After Critical Illness: From Assessment to Intervention","volume":"2","author":"Leske J.
