چکیده
Objectives Frambu Resource Centre for Rare Disorders in Norway has registered 140 persons with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS), and often receives inquiries on telephone and e-mail about different aspects concerning this group. Frambu offer local guidance and courses at Frambu, but with limited time resources for local guidance, as well as limited possibilities for local caregivers to participate in courses at Frambu, we found it necessary to distend our competence services for this group. The aim was to provide essential education about PWS to caregivers that work in group homes all over Norway to ensure better and closer follow-up for people with PWS. Our goal was to develop an electronic course to caregivers, as a new competence service from Frambu that will supplement our traditional services.
