Patient´s experiences of nursing care in emergency departments (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Akutmottagningar är enheter avsedda för patienter i akuta skeden. Med hjälp av triagering kan prioritering av de mest akuta fallen ske. Långa väntetider förekommer ofta på akutmottagningar. Sjuksköterskan har en ledande roll i att säkerställa patientsäkerheten och arbetar utifrån olika etiska koder. Viktiga komponenter för att utföra snabb, effektiv och god omvårdnad är gott bemötande, tydlig kommunikation samt information till både patienter och annan vårdpersonal.

Syfte: Syftet var att belysa patienters upplevelser av omvårdnad på akutmottagningar.

Resultat: Resultatet redovisades i tre olika teman: Upplevelsen av kommunikation och information, upplevelsen av bemötandet och upplevelsen av vårdmiljön

Metod: Denna litteraturöversikt utfördes med tio vetenskapliga artiklar, både av kvalitativ och kvantitativ metod. Datainsamling genomfördes genom databaserna Cinahl Complete och PubMed. Genom analysering av artiklarnas innehåll kunde teman skapas. 

Slutsats: En del patienter upplever vårdlidande på akutmottagningarna, speciellt i väntan på vård och väntan på information från vårdpersonalen. Patienter som blivit bemötta på ett respektfullt sätt har generellt bättre upplevelser. Patienter som blivit bemötta respektlöst, inte fått hjälp eller information har generellt sämre upplevelser. Upplevelserna blir mer negativa när akutmottagningar har en bristande vårdmiljö och mindre resurser eller bemanning. Patienterna har ett behov av mer information, kommunikation och stöd från sjuksköterskorna för att minska deras sjukdomslidande. God omvårdnad minskar sjukdomslidandet och risken för vårdlidande.

Abstract [en]

Background: Emergency departments are units intended for patients in acute conditions. With the help of triage, prioritization of the most urgent cases can take place. Long waiting times often occur in emergency departments. Nurses have a leading role in ensuring patient safety and ensuring that ethical codes are being followed. To ensure that the acute care is rapid and efficient it is necessary to execute good nursing care. Good nursing care is characterized by having good behavior towards patients, giving proper information to patients and communicating with other healthcare staff.

Aim: The aim of this study was to describe patient ́s experiences of nursing care in emergency departments.

Method: This literary review was completed with ten scientific articles. The articles were of qualitative and quantitative methods. Collection of data was done with the databases Cinahl Complete and PubMed. Themes were created through analysis of the articles.

Results: The results were presented in three different themes: The experience of communication and information, the experience of approach and the experience of the healthcare environment.

Conclusions: Some patients experience suffering in the emergency departments, especially while waiting for care and waiting for information from the healthcare staff. Patients who are treated respectfully generally have better experiences. Patients who have been treated disrespectfully, have not received help or information generally have worse experiences. The experience becomes more negative when emergency departments have a deficient care environment and less resources or staffing. The patients have a need for more information, communication and support from the nurses to reduce their suffering. Good care and approach reduce the suffering caused by illness and reduces the risk of increased suffering caused by the healthcare system.
