District nurses' experiences of palliative care at home : an interview study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Valmöjligheten att få vård i livets slutskede i sin hemmiljö ses som en rättighet. Tidigare studier visar att arbetet med palliativ vård i hemmet ses av distriktssköterskor som givande men utmanande. Syfte: Syftet var att undersöka distriktssköterskors erfarenheter av att vårda patienter med palliativ vård i hemmet. Metod: En kvalitativ metod valdes och data samlades in genom semistrukturerade intervjuer. Tio intervjuer hölls med distriktssköterskor i fyra olika kommuner i västra Sverige. Datamaterialet analyserades med kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Analysen resulterade i tre teman: Att arbeta med individanpassad omvårdnad, Att arbeta i team och Att hantera svåra situationer och utvecklas i sin profession. Dessa delades in i sex subteman. Konklusion: Studien visade på att distriktssköterskors erfarenheter och kunskaper varierar. Det framkom även att den organisatoriska uppbyggnaden med resurser och stöd varierade mellan kommunerna vilket ansågs av författarna kunna leda till en ökad risk för ojämlik vård.

Abstract [en]

Background: The choice to receive end-of-life care in one's home environment is seen as a right. The work with palliative care in the home is seen by district nurses as rewarding but challenging. Aim: The aim was to investigate district nurses' experiences of caring for patients with palliative care at home. Method: A qualitative method was selected and data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Ten interviews were held with district nurses in four different municipalities in Sweden. The data material was analyzed with qualitative content analysis. Results: The analysis resulted in three themes: Working with individualized nursing, Working in teams and Dealing with difficult situations and developing in one's profession. These were divided into six sub-themes. Conclusion: The study showed that district nurses' experiences and knowledge vary. It also emerged that the organizational structure with resources and support varied between the municipalities, which was considered by the authors to lead to an increased risk of unequal care.
