This exploratory, retrospective study was performed at the Pousada de Maria lodging in Curitiba, Brazil in 2007, with the objective of characterizing the profile of the violence practiced against women staying at Pousada de Maria from 1993 to 2007. Data collection was performed by analyzing 886 records of the victims' registration and transcribed to an instrument formulated for the study. The victims were between 18 and 88 years old, with low education; they suffered physical, psychological, sexual and structural violence, mainly by their partners and acquaintances. They lived with violence to maintain their family union and decided to resolve the situation when they had access to social programs and shelters. Violence is a common phenomenon among single women with incomplete primary education; 24.6% suffered physical violence, 24.15% psychological, and 14.22% structural violence. Single women, whether in a common-law relationship or married, should be considered as an at-risk group and worthy subjects of attention by health professionals when planning preventive actions.
RESUMOTrata-se de um artigo de reflexão que teve o objetivo de discutir sobre os elementos do Modelo Bioecológico do Desenvolvimento Humano de Bronfenbrenner com a expectativa de encontrar contribuições para o conhecimento de enfermagem e sua práxis na interface com a violência doméstica. Compreender a complexidade do ser humano na perspectiva bioecológica possibilita o desenvolvimento de uma práxis transformadora no contexto da atuação da enfermeira diante da demanda de cuidados à pessoa que vivencia este tipo de violência. Considera-se que esta teoria sobre o desenvolvimento humano traz em sua estrutura elementos constituintes das inter-relações da pessoa e o ambiente ao seu entorno, como fatores determinantes na formação do indivíduo. Assim, ao se apropriar deste modelo, a enfermagem amplia o seu olhar sobre a multidimensionalidade humana, o que pode refletir no cuidado perante as situações de violência doméstica. Abstract ResumenIt is a reflection paper which objectified to discuss the elements of Bronfenbrenner's Bioecological Model on Human Development expecting to contribute for nursing knowledge and its praxis on domestic violence interface. Grasping human beings' complexity in the bioecological perspective enables the development of a transforming praxis in the context of nursing performance facing caring demand to a person who experienced this kind of abuse. It is considered that this theory on human development entails in its structure constitutive elements of people's interrelationships and their surrounding environment as the determining factors to shape individuals. Thus, by taking this model, nursing broadens its look on human multidimensionality which may be reflected in its praxis and care towards situations of domestic violence. Este es un artículo de reflexión que tuvo el propósito de discutir los elementos del modelo Bioecológico de Desarrollo Humano Bronfenbrenner, esperando encontrar las contribuciones al conocimiento y práctica de enfermería en su interface con la violencia doméstica. Comprender la complejidad de los seres humanos en la perspectiva bioecológica permite el desarrollo de una praxis transformadora en el marco de las acciones del enfermo frente a la demanda de atención a la persona que experimenta este tipo de violencia. Se considera que esta teoría sobre el desarrollo humano trae en su estructura elementos de relaciones interpersonales y el ambiente con su entorno, tales como factores determinantes en la formación del individuo. Así, la enfermería al apropiarse de este modelo amplía su mirada en el ser humano multidimensional, que puede reflexionar sobre su práctica frente a las situaciones de violencia doméstica.
esquisa descritiva, qualitativa, realizada em serviço de acolhimento institucional, em Curitiba/Paraná, com 08 mulheres vítimas de violência doméstica. Os objetivos foram identificar o percurso da resiliência nas mulheres e conhecer os fatores que predispõem a resiliência. A coleta de dados ocorreu de novembro de 2010 a fevereiro de 2011, mediante entrevista aberta gravada e transcrita. Os discursos, analisados pela análise de conteúdo temática, revelaram o tema: A força do amor materno interrompendo o ciclo da violência doméstica e possibilitando o processo de resiliência. Evidenciou-se que o início do processo de resiliência ocorreu quando os filhos passaram a ser vítimas da violência e a permanência no serviço de acolhimento gerou perspectivas para a superação do vivido e possibilidades de um futuro melhor. As experiências das mulheres e dos fatores de resiliência oferecem subsídios à Enfermagem, possibilitando a realização de ações de enfrentamento e cuidado conforme as vivências das mesmas.
Objective: To understand the daily actions of women who have experienced sexual violence. Method: A qualitative study was conducted with 11 women who suffered sexual violence in southern Brazil. Their testimonies were obtained through phenomenological interviews conducted between October 2014 and April 2015. Results: The daily lives of women after suffering sexual violence were permeated by mental distress, translated into fear. This impacted their mental health by limiting their daily lives, especially social activities (work, school, sentimental, and sexual relations). To overcome the consequences of sexual violence, women sought support from family and friends and reintegration into the labor market and course of studies. Conclusion and implications for practice: Individual and group actions providing psychosocial and social support to women in situations of sexual violence are essential to help victims cope with the consequences of this experience.
