“…It was clear from the RNs descriptions that they strived to apply a person‐centred approach, which involves listening to and valuing the patient's experiences and making their wishes central to decisions about care (Ekman et al, ; Haydon, Browne, & van der Riet, ). They expressed a wish for more time for bedside nursing to establish interpersonal relations with patients and their families and to acknowledge patients’ physical and psychosocial care needs, which are similar to the dimensions of care described in the Fundamentals of Care framework (Feo et al, ; Kitson, Conroy, Kuluski, Locock, & Lyons, ).…”

et al. 2019

Aim To describe job satisfaction in registered nurses (RNs), their intention to stay at their current workplace and in the profession and to explore patient safety in relation to these. Background Nurse turnover presents a serious challenge to health care that may be predicted by factors related to the work environment. Method Descriptive design with 25 qualitative interviews. Results Five categories were identified: RNs feel satisfied when providing person‐centred care; RNs enjoy the variability of the nursing job, but want control; RNs feel frustrated when care is put on hold or left undone; RNs depend on team collaboration and the work environment to assure patient safety; intention to stay depends on the work environment and a chance for renewal. Conclusion Registered nurses’ job satisfaction could be described as a double‐edged sword. Although the profession is described as a positive challenge, work overload threatens both job satisfaction and patient safety. Implications for Nursing Management Our findings suggest that nursing leadership can increase RNs’ intention to stay by meeting their needs for appreciation, a better work environment, competence development and professional career development.

“…Narrative analysis is an effective way to understand less structured, yet rich and in-depth descriptions of thoughts, feelings, and meanings [33], and has been used in studies of cancer patients [34,35] and their exercise behaviors [36]. In this study, narrative analysis facilitated exploration of the rationale underlying time-spent on exercise and on exercise activities [37,38].…”

Exercise experiences in patients with metastatic lung cancer: A qualitative approach

et al. 2020

Background Patients with metastatic lung cancer can have severe cancer-related symptoms and treatment-induced side effects. Exercise is beneficial for patients with metastatic lung cancer; however, little information is available on guiding patients how to perform exercise during hospitalization. The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand exercise experiences in patients with metastatic lung cancer. Methods Patients with metastatic lung cancer (n = 24) participated in face-to-face in-depth interviews at an inpatient ward of a medical center in central Taiwan. Interview transcripts were evaluated using narrative analysis to extract and validate themes. Results Three primary themes were identified: (1) modifying exercise to maximize physical functions; (2) living with symptoms and frustration, but still exercising; and (3) doing exercise to sustain hopes, inner power, and life. Secondary findings included: (1) adopting walking as their main form of exercise because of its convenience; and (2) among patients with severe symptoms, adjusting exercise towards shorter time durations and shorter distances, slower speeds, and higher frequencies. Conclusions The study found physically active lung cancer patients, although with metastatic condition, adjusted their exercise activities to balance disease and treatment-induced deteriorations and boost themselves to feel hope and fight for cancer. However, the results may not be

“…The analysis is centred around three dimensions: temporality (past, present and future), sociality (personal, social and cultural) and spatiality (places) (Clandinin, 2006;Clandinin et al, 2016;Connelly & Clandinin, 1990). These dimensions give a better understanding and provide new knowledge as they show the persons and their interactions over time, at a particular place in relation to each other (Haydon, Browne, & Riet, 2017). As such, this design is suited to explore the experiences from the Active Care programme in the students' daily work.…”
