Abstract [en]

Background: Nurses experience that a good work environment creates opportunities to have a good communication with patients. A stressful work environment on the emergency department may instead lead to a deficient communication. Relatives experience that the communication with nurses may be inadequate and that the information about their close relative is missing. Method: General literature review based on Friberg (2017a), ten health science articles were analyzed, seven qualitative, two mixed methods and one quantitative. Aim: The purpose was to describe patients experience of nurses’ communication in connection with care in an emergency department. Results: Three themes emerged; language barriers, the importance of integrity in communication and the importance of participation in communication. During the first theme, language barriers, it appeared that the patients experienced that the nurses use of medical terminology made the communication more difficult. The importance of integrity in communication identified that the patient experienced a breach of privacy when nurses spoke loudly about their condition so that other patients and health care personal could hear. The importance of participation in communication means that patients experienced that they could be participating in their own care through the nurse’s communication. Conclusion: Patients experienced that language barriers made the communication with nurses more difficult, that there was an importance of integrity and participation in communication with nurses. 

Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Sjuksköterskorna upplever att en god arbetsmiljö skapar möjligheter för att ha en god kommunikation med patienterna. En stressig arbetsmiljö på akutmottagningen kan i stället leda till sämre kommunikation med patienterna. Anhöriga upplever att kommunikationen med sjuksköterskorna kan vara bristfällig och att information om dess närstående uteblir. Metod: En allmän litteraturöversikt utifrån Friberg (2017a), tio vårdvetenskapliga artiklar analyserades, varav sju kvalitativa, två mixed method och en kvantitativ. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva patienternas upplevelser av sjuksköterskornas kommunikation i samband med vård på en akutmottagning.  Resultat: Det framkom tre teman; språkbarriärer, integritetens betydelse i kommunikationen och betydelsen av delaktighet i kommunikationen. Under det första temat, språkbarriärer, framkom det att patienterna upplevde att sjuksköterskornas användning av medicinsk terminologi försvårade kommunikationen. Temat integritetens betydelse i kommunikationen innebär att patienterna upplevde det integritetskränkande när sjuksköterskorna talade högt om deras tillstånd så att andra patienter och vårdpersonal kunde höra. Betydelsen av delaktighet innebär att patienterna upplevde att de genom sjuksköterskornas kommunikation fick möjligheten att vara delaktiga i den egna vården. Slutsats: Patienterna upplevde att språkbarriärer försvårade kommunikationen med sjuksköterskorna, att det var betydande att patienternas integritet bevarades av sjuksköterskorna i kommunikationen samt att patienterna genom sjuksköterskornas kommunikation blir delaktiga i sin egen vård.
