The role of the school nurse at problematic school absenteeism, a systematic literature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Problematisk skolfrånvaro oavsett motiv är ett hinder för elevens skolgång. Orsaker till skolfrånvaro kan vara skolk, kronisk sjukdom och tillfällig sjukdom. Elevhälsan där skolsköterskan ingår har en betydande roll i att främja elevers skolnärvaro och tidigt identifiera elever som behöver anpassningar för att nå utbildningsmål.

Syfte: Syftet var att utifrån skolsköterskans roll utforska vilka faktorer som minskar skolfrånvaro.

Metod: En systematisk litteraturöversikt användes. Totalt 20 vetenskapliga artiklar varav elva kvantitativa och nio kvalitativa analyserades enligt Polit och Becks (2021) analysmetod.

Resultat: Tre huvudteman framkom: Kännedom om elevens hälsa och livsvillkor, Skolsköterskans kompetens och Skolsköterskans närvaro och kommunikation. Problematisk skolfrånvaro kan bero på olika orsaker som elevens sociala miljö, skolk och kronisk sjukdom. Medicinsk kompetens hos skolsköterskan är viktigt för att kunna ge eleven evidensbaserad vård. Ett gott samarbete mellan hemmet och skolan samt att skolsköterskan är närvarande på skolan ger en trygghet för eleven och bidrar till att minska skolfrånvaro.

Konklusion: Slutsatsen visar att skolsköterskan har en viktig roll för elevens närvaro genom att vara länken mellan eleven, hemmet och skolmiljön. Det visar sig en närvarande skolsköterska på skolan leder till minskad skolfrånvaro.

Abstract [en]

Background: Problematic absence from school, regardless of motive, is an obstacle to the student's school attendance. Reasons for school absence can be truancy, chronic illness and temporary illness. The school nurse has a significant role in promoting students' school attendance and early identification of students who may need support for the adaptation in the school and help them to reach their educational goals.

Aim: The aim was to explore, based on the school nurse's role, which factors reduce school absenteeism.

Method: A systematic literature review was used. A total of 20 scientific articles, eleven quantitative and nine qualitative, were analyzed according to Polit and Beck's (2021) analysis method.

Findings: The analysis resulted in three main themes: Knowledge of the student's health and living conditions, the School Nurse's competence and the School Nurse's presence and communication. Problematic school absence can be due to various reasons; the student's social environment, truancy, chronic illness. The right medical competence of the school nurse is important to be able to provide the student with evidence-based care. Good cooperation between home and school, as well as the presence of the school nurse at school, provides security for the student and contributes to reducing school absences.

Conclusion: The conclusion shows that the school nurse has an important role for the student's attendance by being the link between the student, the home and the school environment. It turns out that having a school nurse present at the school, leads to reduced school absenteeism.
