A sinalização do enfermeiro entre os papéis de familiares visitantes e acompanhante de adulto e idoso

Abstract

This qualitative study was based on Symbolic Interactionism and Grounded Theory and aimed to understand the interactive experience of visiting family members and companions of hospitalized adult and elderly people and to develop a theoretical model of this experience. Data were collected through observations and interviews. Two phenomena emerged from the data analysis: living the expectation of hospitalization and assuming the roles of a family visitor or companion. Understanding this experience increased our knowledge about the change that occurred, which was called "shifting between the role of visiting family member and companion in view of nurses' indications": sharing an experience of few pleasures in solidarity with hospitalized adult and elderly people.

“…The research demonstrated that the family starts to understand the nursing team, led by the nurse, as symbolic and central in the patient-nursingfamily interaction process, vested with the legitimate and normative institutional power, and as a barrier against the exercise of the family's autonomy and against the free movement between the roles of family visitor and companion (3) .…”

O processo de cuidar de famílias de idosos em situação de final de vida na estratégia saúde da família

“…A partir daí, pude desenvolver algumas pesquisas que objetivaram compreender a experiência das famílias no contexto da doença mental (Silva, Moreno, 2004) e da hospitalização de adultos e idosos (Silva, Bocchi, 2005;Bocchi et al, 2007;Silva, Bocchi, Bousso, 2008), entretanto, a área da saúde coletiva, especificamente a Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF) parecia-me muito propícia para aprofundar o conhecimento sobre família, pois acreditava que a família como unidade de cuidado era a perspectiva que dava todo o sentido ao processo de trabalho nesse cenário (Angelo, Bousso, 2001). …”
