School nurse´experience of working with children who witness violence against their mother at home. (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Det är ungefär 10 % av barnen som bor i Sverige som bevittnar våld mot mamman i hemmet. Våldet försiggår i olika familjesammansättningar, inom olika socioekonomiska samt psykosociala typer av familjer. Att bevittna våld kan leda till att barnen får svårt att klara sin skolgång och kan även ge både psykiska och fysiska symtom. Skolsköterskan är en person som alla barn på en skola träffar någon gång under sina skolår och har därför en viktig stödjande roll.Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva skolsköterskors erfarenheter av att arbeta med barn som bevittnar våld mot mamman i hemmet.Metod: I denna studie användes en induktiv ansats där datamaterialet analyserades med kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Datamaterialet bygger på intervjuer som genomfördes med sex skolsköterskor.Resultat: Ur analysen av datamaterialet framträdde två kategorier: identifiera utsatt barn samt tar emot och bekräftar barnets berättelse.Konklusion: Skolsköterskorna försöker skapa en relation mellan sig själv och barnet så att barnet skall uppleva att de har en personlig relation till skolsköterskan och på så sätt ha lättare för att söka stöd hos denne och berätta om sina erfarenheter.

Abstract [en]

Background: Approximately 10% of the children residing in Sweden witness violence against their mothers. The violence exists in different types of families – both different socioeconomic and psychosocial types. To witness violence can cause a child to struggle with schooling, but also give both psychological and physical symptoms. The school nurse is a person that meets with all the children of a school at least a few times during their school years and as such has an important supporting role.Aim: The aim of the study was to describe school nurses’ experiences of working with children who witness violence against their mother at home.Method: The method used was an inductive approach where data was analyzed with a qualitative content analysis. The data was collected through interviews with six school nurses.Results: Two categories emerged from the analysis; to identify exposed children and to receive and confirm the child's story, with their seven subcategories. Conclusion: The school nurses are trying to create a relationship between themselves and the child so the child feel a personal relationship with the school nurse and therefore seek support from her/him and share own experiences.
