Finding your role - the school nurse´s work with sexual health : A qualitative study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Sexuell hälsa är en mänsklig rättighet och en viktig del av ungdomars allmänna, sociala och personliga välbefinnande. Ungdomar beskriver i forskning att de önskar mer kunskap om sexualitet och relationer. Skolans undervisning i sexualitet, relationer och samtycke ska främja elevers hälsa och välbefinnande.

Syfte: Att beskriva skolsköterskors erfarenheter av att undervisa och arbeta med sexuell hälsa.

Metod: Kvalitativ studie. Nio skolsköterskor deltog i kvalitativa intervjuer med en fenomenologisk ansats. Datamaterialet analyserades med kvalitativ innebördsanalys enligt Dahlberg (2014).

Resultat: Analysen resulterade i fem innebördsteman; Varje skola har en egen kultur, Att fördela tiden efter resurser, Skolsköterskans utbildning inom sexuell hälsa, Att vara tillgänglig och möta eleven och Fokus på hälsosamtalet- att så ett frö,

Konklusion: Det finns en otydlighet i vilket uppdrag skolsköterskor har i arbetet med sexuell hälsa. Skolsköterskor beskriver att det beror på skolans organisatoriska förutsättningar samt skolsköterskans intresse och egen drivkraft i ämnet. Likaså beror det på kunskap och utbildning och synen på ansvar i att lära ut i ämnet. Det leder till att ungdomar får en ojämlik undervisning i sexuell hälsa. Rektor behöver ta mer ansvar i uppdraget som skolan har. Skolledningen måste gå från teori till praktik och arbeta med hela kedjan av anställda på skolan.

Abstract [en]

Introduction: Sexual health is a human right and an important component of all adolescent’s general, social and personal wellbeing. It has been described in research that adolescents wish for more knowledge regarding sexuality and relationships. The school’s instruction on sexuality, relationships and consent is intended to promote the students’ health and wellbeing.

Purpose: To describe school nurses’ experiences in education and work involving sexual health.

Method: Qualitative study: Nine school nurse´s participated in qualitative interviews with a phenomenological approach. The data was analyzed with qualitative meaning analysis according to Dahlberg (2014).

Findings: The analysis resulted in five different categories; Each school has its own culture, To divide time according to resources, The school nurse's education in sexual health, Beingavailable and face the student and Focus on health talk– to plant a seed.

Conclusion: There is an unclarity as to what role the school nurses have when working with sexual health. The nurses describe much of the variance is due to the organizational prerequisites set by the school, along with the nurses’ interests and personal drive regarding the subject matter. It is also dependent on their knowledge and education as well as their sense of obligation for teaching the subject matter. This leads to youth experiencing a differentiated education in sexualhealth. Schoolprincipals need towork indeveloping clear guidelines and routines around the mission schools have according to the curriculum. Leadership must advance from theory to putting it into practice and collaborate with the whole chain of employees.
