Private in a nursing home : A qualitative study of the elderly’s potential or the difficulty of privacy in nursing homes from a managerial perspective (English)
Abstract [sv]

Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur chefer arbetar med privatliv för de äldre på äldreboenden. I studien valde jag att använda mig av en kvalitativ metod som bestod av åtta semistrukturerade intervjuer. Jag analyserade resultatet med hjälp av Nordenfelts fyra värdighetsbegrepp såväl som begreppet värdigt bemötande, tidigare forskning och tillviss del begreppsförklaringen om privatliv. Studiens resultat visar att respondenterna beskrev privatliv som ett viktigt arbetsområde då de arbetade i de boendes hem. Respondenterna tolkade privatliv på flera olika sätt samtidigt som de hade svårigheter med att beskriva begreppets betydelse. Arbetet med de boendes rätt eller möjlighet till privatliv kan ses som en relation mellan den boende och personalen på boendet. Arbetet i de enas hem och den andras arbetsplats kan skapa möjligheter för bevarad värdighet och samtidigt undvika kränkt värdighet. I detta arbetssätt agerar cheferna en stödjande och utvecklande aktör för att möjliggöra de boendes rätt till privatliv.

Abstract [en]

The purpose of the study was to investigate how managers work with privacy for the elderly in nursing homes. In the study, I chose to use a qualitative method that consisted of eight semistructured interviews. I analyzed the results using Nordenfelt's four concepts of dignity as well as the concept of dignified treatment, previous research and partially the concept of privacy. The study's results show that the respondents described privacy as an important area of ​​work as they are working in the homes of the residents. Respondents interpreted privacy in a variety of ways while having difficulty describing the meaning of the term. Work with the residents' right or opportunity for privacy can be seen as a relationship between the residents and the staff of the accommodation. The work in their homes as well as the other's workplace can create opportunities for preserved dignity while avoiding violated dignity. In this way the managers can act as a supportive and developing actor for preserving the elderly’s right to privacy.
