Children and adolescents in families experiencing illness or other health challenges often assume caregiving responsibilities. School health care professionals are well-positioned to identify and support these young carers, who are at risk of poorer well-being. The primary aim of this study is to examine the association between a caring relationship and receiving support from a school health nurse (SHN) among 16- to 18-year-olds in the general population. The second aim is to explore whether a caring relation, together with sociodemographic factors, explains unmet support needs from SHN. The original data source for this cross-sectional study is the School Health Promotion (SHP) study conducted in Finland in 2019. The target group for our study consisted of 1st- and 2nd-year students from vocational institutions and general upper secondary schools. The data contains 62,273 students, of whom almost 14% reported having a caring relationship on some scale.
