Abstract [sv]

Syftet med studien var att beskriva och analysera anhörigas delaktighet i och upplevelse av vården på äldreboende av närstående äldre med beteendemässiga och psykiska symtom vid demens. Vidare var syftet att beskriva och analysera hur anhörigrollen kan ha förändrats i samband med den närstående äldres flytt från egen bostad till äldreboende. Fem kvalitativa intervjuer genomfördes med anhöriga till närstående äldre bosatta vid ett specifikt boende. Studiens resultat visade att anhörigrollen förändrats efter flytt till äldreboende. Majoriteten av respondenterna hade tidigare agerat anhörigvårdare i hemmet och efter deras närstående äldres flytt till äldreboende, beskrev de blandade känslor av exempelvis lättnad och ensamhet. Vidare visade resultatet att respondenterna hade en positiv upplevelse av vården och kände sig delaktiga i vården av sin närstående bosatt vid boendet.

Abstract [en]

The aim of this study was to describe and analyse relative’s involvement and experience of the care in a nursing home for a next of kin who was an older person with behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia, and how the role as a relative changed after the elderly’s move from their own home to a nursing home. We conducted five qualitative interviews with relatives related to elderly residing at a nursing home. The results showed that the role as a relative changed after their related elderly’s move to nursing home. The majority of the respondents had previously acted as a caretaker in the home and after their related elderly’s move to nursing home they described mixed feelings of relief and loneliness. The results showed that the respondents had a positive experience of the care and felt involved in the care of their related elderly residing in the nursing home.
