- Abstract
Objective: to describe the strategies adopted by nurses in order to provide the families of hospitalized children and adolescents with care. Method: this is a qualitative study, guided by thematic oral history, conducted with 12 nurses at a pediatric hospital. A semi-structured interview script was used to collect data. Data was organized and codified by using the software Atlas.ti 7.0 (Qualitative Research and Solutions), obtaining the categories: The family from nurses' viewpoint: conceptual perspective; and Nurses providing the families of hospitalized children with care. Results: it was revealed that nurses turn the establishment of bonds, communication, health education, and search for support from the multiprofessional team, as well as a qualified listening and a calm professional attitude, into strategies to provide the families of hospitalized children and adolescents with care. Conclusion: the strategies used by nurses take place in the subjective dimension, and, in the essence, they are of great importance, by contributing to a better coping with the hard experience that hospitalization represents for the binomial family/child; these nurses also have a closer relationship with both the family and the child, getting to know their needs better.
