Nurse’s experiences of language barriers in healthcare : A Literature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Språkbarriärer i hälso- och sjukvården har blivit alltmer förekommande då invandringen och migrationen ökat. Vikten av Kommunikation, jämlik vård, patientsäkerhet och patienters erfaranheter framförs.

Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av språkbarriärer i vården.

Metod: En allmän litteraturöversikt genomfördes enligt Fribergs (2017) analysmodell. 10 vetenskapliga artiklar som analyserades varav 9 var kvalitativa och en kvantitativ artikel. Artiklar hämtades från databaserna PUBMED, CINAHL Complete och Medline med följande sökord: nurse perception, nurse-patient-relations, nurse experience och language barriers.

Resultat: Resultatet visade att vårdkvaliteten påverkades negativt av språkbarriärer, resultatet påvisade även risk för patientsäkerheten. Sjuksköterskor tillämpade olika sätt för att besegra språkhindren. Litteraturstudiens resultat presenteras utifrån dessa huvudkategorier: språkbarriärer leder till osäkerhet, frustration och oro, att kommunicera genom tolk, att tala samma språk och alternativa kommunikationsmedel.

Sammanfattning: I denna litteraturöversikt har sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av språkbarriärer i vården belysts samt hur det påverkar omvårdnaden. För att uppnå jämlikhet och kunna ge personcentrerad vård till patienter så bör sjuksköterskan ha en kulturell kompetens samt förstå innebörden av kulturell omvårdnad. Det är viktigt att kunna utbilda framtida sjuksköterskor och etablerade sjuksköterskor om språkbarriärer samt om mångkulturell omvårdnad.

Abstract [en]

Background: Language barriers in health care have become increasingly common as immigration and migration have increased. The importance of communication, equal care, patient safety and patient’s experiences of language barriers are presented.

Aim: The purpose of the literature study was to shed light on nurse’s experiences of language barriers in care.

Method: A general literature review was conducted according to Fribergs (2017) analysis model. 10 scientific articles were analyzed of which 9 were qualitative and one quantitative article. Articles were retrieved from the databases PUBMED, CINAHL Complete and Medline with the following keywords: nurse perception, nurse-patient-relations, nurse experience and language barriers.

Results: The results showed that the quality of care was negatively affected by language barriers and risked patient safety. Nurses applied different ways to overcome language barriers. The results of the literature study are presented based on these main categories: Language barriers lead to uncertainty, frustration and anxiety, to communicate through an interpreter, to speak the same language and alternative means of communication.

Summary: In this literature review, nurses' experiences of language barriers in care have been highlighted, as well as how it affects nursing. In order to achieve equality and be able to provide person-centered care to these patients, the nurse should have a cultural competence and be able to understand the meaning of cultural nursing. It is important to be able to train future nurses and established nurses about language barriers and about multicultural nursing.
