Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Stigmatisering kring människor som har psykiatriska diagnoser är vitt spridd. Det finns forskning som visar att detta också förekommer inom vården och att detta kan påverka den vård patienter med psykiatriska diagnoser får. Dessutom blir olika psykiatriska diagnoser allt mer vanligt förekommande i samhället, därför kommer även patienter med dessa diagnoser bli vanligare. Syfte: Studiens syfte var att belysa hur sjuksköterskor inom den somatiska vården uppfattar bemötandet och omvårdnaden av patienter med en psykiatrisk diagnos. Metod: Studien var en empirisk studie genomförd med en deskriptiv kvalitativ ansats. Det genomfördes 5 halvstrukturerade intervjuer med legitimerade sjuksköterskor från en somatisk avdelning. Materialet som framkom analyserades genom en manifest innehållsanalys. Resultat: Det framkom 4 huvudkategorier med totalt tio underkategorier. Kunskap: kunskapsbrist och förkunskaper, Bemötande: frustration, patientsyn och omvårdnad, Rädsla: undvikande, vaksamhet och ovisshet, Trovärdighet: tilltro och misstro. Slutsats: Tids och kunskapsbrist skapar en frustration vid omvårdnaden av patienter med psykiatriska diagnoser. Kunskapsbristen leder också till en rädsla för hur dessa patienter ska reagera och bete sig, samt för att sjusköterskan inte vet hur hon ska hantera situationen. Detta leder till ett undvikande av patienten och på så sätt till ensämre omvårdnad.

Abstract [en]

Background: Stigma concerning people with psychiatric diagnoses is widespread. There are studies that show that this also is common in hospital settings. This might affect the care that is provided to patients with psychiatric diagnoses. Psychiatric diagnoses are also increasing in the society which means that the number of patients with psychiatric diagnoses will increase as well. Aim: The aim of this study was to bring some light to how registered nurses working with patient with medical problems experience the care given to patients with psychiatric diagnoses. Method: This is an empirical study using a descriptive qualitative approach. 5 semi-structured interviews were conducted with registered nurses working in a ward for medical problems. The data that was received were analyzed using a manifest content analysis. Results: 4 main categories and 10 under categories emerged. Knowledge: lack of knowledge and pre-knowledge, Response to the patients: Frustration, patient view and care, Fear: avoidance, vigilance and uncertainty, Trustworthiness: trust and distrust. Conclusion: Lack of time and knowledge creates a frustration when caring for patients with psychiatric diagnoses. The lack of knowledge also leads to a fear of how these patients will react and behave, and a fear for not knowing how to handle the situation. This leads to a avoidance of the patients and by that these patients get an inferior care.
