The amount of change between pre test and post test in the score of total QUALITY OF LIFE was (13.18±13.54). Conclusion: Findings of this study showed that life quality of FAMILY CAREGIVERs promoted after instruction about how to do correct care on cerebral palsied children. Therefore, the importance of family instruction can be concluded for better life of cerebral palsied child caregivers. It should be noted that the effectiveness of rehabilitation program for cerebral palsied children might have positive effects on life quality of their caregivers.
