Hur vårdgivare arbetar med omvårdnad vid ett rehabiliteringscenter för funktionshindrade barn på landsbygden i Peru : En observationsstudie (Swedish)
Abstract [en]

Background: In Peru it is estimated that ten percent of the population suffers from a disability. Nursing in rehabilitation setting is when the nurse aims to maximize the quality of life for a patient suffering from disability or chronic disease. Aim: The aim is to describe nursing by care providers on a rehabilitation center in rural Peru. Method: The method in this thesis is observational study with ethnographic approach. The observations is performed on a rehabilitation center in rural Peru. Result: Two themes and four sub-themes were identified from the collected data. Nursing care with including sub-themes clinical investigation and family-centered care. Mobilization and independency with including sub themes improve the chance to mobilize and promote self-management. Conclusion: The Peruvian nursing care provided through a rehabilitation center in rural Peru shows that care providers are working with very basic equipment and limited instructions about how to maximize the patient outcome with very few recourses. Education methods are adjusted to their patient group to promote family centered care. Further research: Guidelines for rehabilitation nursing should be developed for settings without high technologized equipment as well as how to maximize the patient and family outcome through family centered care with limited resources.

Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: I Peru beräknas tio procent av befolkningen vara drabbad av ett funktionshinder. Rehabiliterings-omvårdnad syftar till att maximera livskvalitén för den patient som lider av ett handikapp eller en kronisk sjukdom. Syfte: Syftet är att beskriva vårdgivarens omvårdnad vid ett rehabiliteringscenter på Perus landsbygd. Metod: Metoden i denna studie är en observationsstudie med etnografisk ansats. Observationerna är utförda vid ett rehabiliteringscenter på Perus landsbygd. Resultat: Två teman och fyra sub-teman har identifierats utifrån insamlad data. Omvårdnad som inkluderar klinisk undersökning och familjecentrerad vård. Mobilisering och ökad självständighet som inkluderar ökad chans till mobilisering och främjande av egenvård. Slutsats: Den peruanska omvårdnaden som erbjuds vid ett rehabiliteringscenter på landsbygden i Peru visar att vårdgivare arbetar med väldigt basal utrustning samt begränsade instruktioner för att patienten ska kunna uppnå maximal funktion med få resurser. Undervisningsmetoder är anpassade till deras patientgrupp för att främja familje-centrerad omvårdnad. Vidare forskning: Riktlinjer för rehabiliteringsomvårdnad bör utvecklas avsett för en miljö utan högteknologisk utrustning samt beskriva hur patienter tillsammans med sin familj uppnår maximalt resultat med få resurser att tillgå.
