Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Introduction: Assuming the role of caregiver is a challenging and demanding experience involving a set of necessary requisites, which is why it is essential to identify them. Objective: To know the nurses' perception of the requisites for taking on the role of caregiver. Methods: This is a descriptive exploratory study with a qualitative approach. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nurse managers, specialist nurses, and general care nurses at a hospital in central Portugal. Content analysis was conducted using MAXQDA Analytic Pro 2022 software. Results: From the analysis of the nine interviews, three categories and their subcategories emerged: Acceptance (Commitment, Awareness, Involvement, Self-efficacy), Competencies (Knowledge, Capabilities, Requisites appropriate to the person being cared for); Resources (Availability, Economic, Architectural, Resources in the community, Informal support and Technical assistance). Conclusion: The requisites for assuming the role of caregiver are multiple and variable, considering the needs of the dependent person. Knowledge of these requisites can significantly improve the standardized action of nurses in this area of intervention, contributing to a healthy situational transition.
