Childhood illness causes parents to be worried and stressed. Lack of information about disease will increase their concern. Educational programs can reduce parental stress and postoperative complications. Methods: In this study, the mothers of Hirschsprung Disease (HD) patients were selected to examine the disease training. The sampling was started by the census method from 2014 and continued until 2017. The statistical population included 2 groups of 30 mothers whose children were less than 6 months old. In one group, disease training was with a doctor and a trained person (group A). In another group, the mother of the treated child was also added to the training group, she was under the control of the educational staff (group B). The designed questions were asked from mothers in both groups before and after the training. The satisfaction level of training was also examined. Finally, the SPSS 23 software was used to analyze the data. Results:The provided training was effective in both groups because the percentage of the responses to questions has significantly increased after the intervention. The results indicated that group B was more satisfied with training. Conclusion: The results showed that the mother’s presence of a child with HD while her child is treated and entered the community had a positive effect on the training and comprehension of the disease in patients’ parents.  %U https://fmej.mums.ac.ir/article_12907_04b2b431f0e2d4386d9881a1f50a1175.pdf
