Nursing students’ sense perception of communication in psychiatric hospital

Abstract

Objective: to analyze the sense perception of nursing students in the learning of communication in a psychiatric hospital. Method: qualitative, exploratory and descriptive, from representative drawings of the communication perceived by the body senses of 23 nursing students, and recorded enunciation of the remarkable experiences after the end of the practical activities. The data were analyzed according to thematic content. Results: the heart captures perceptions, favoring interpersonal relationships; smelling shows care lacking in hospitalization; vision monopolizes the impressions of reality, making the movements static; hearing is exercised in the amplitude to listen; touching demarcates limitations of contact and interaction; and tasting, as social sense, seeks to overcome the obstacles to take care. Conclusion: the learning of communication was significant, making the psychiatric hospital a space to listen to what is inside, to find in the emotions and rationalities the sensations that can be inside and outside the tension nodes that interfere in the perceptions.

“…Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is known to significantly alter the life context of patients and their families, considering the effects and behavioral responses generated by diagnosis and treatment (3)(4) . During hospitalization, challenges such as forming a bond with the team and patient, the mechanisms of acceptance experienced, the relationship between family, cycle of friends and the community, among others, together, signal the breadth and scope of nursing practice in nephrology (5) .…”

“…It is recognized that attention to psycho-affective dimensions in nephrology enhances the intersubjective production of comprehensive nursing care, expanding the therapeutic bases of interaction, respect, and ethics (2)(3) .…”

Linhas reflexivas para pensar a unidade epistêmica corpo em interface aos cuidados de enfermagem

“…Diante disso, a corporeidade indica a presença do corpo próprio com seus aspectos perceptivos como um dos polos da experiência, estabelecendo o seu mundo com o do outro no encontro do cuidado humano 11 . Dessa forma, chamase atenção para o valor dos sentidos corporais para (re)significar as ações em saúde no contexto das interações humanas protagonizados pelos corpos dos enfermeiros/técnicos de enfermagem com os seus clientes 12 .…”

“…O corpo deve ser incluído no processo pedagógico. Desse modo é possível construir no futuro profissional de enfermagem um corpo sensível; no sentido de está atento as sensações envolvidas no cuidar 14 . Nesta perspectiva, espera-se que estudantes e profissionais da enfermagem sintam em seus corpos as memórias de um cuidado de enfermagem que se dobra para o ambiente e está alicerçado pelas notas produzidas por Florence Nightingale 15 , fundadora da Enfermagem Moderna.…”
