Relatives' experiences in connection with end-of-life care in in patientcare : A literature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: För att både sjuke närstående och anhöriga ska få en god och säker vård krävs det att sjuksköterskan arbetar utifrån ett helhetsperspektiv där sjuke närstående tillsammans med deras anhöriga läggs i fokus. Det är inte alltid att anhöriga känner sig att de blir hörda under tiden de har en närstående som befinner sig i livets slutskede. Det är inte bara viktigt för sjuke närstående att kunna ha en roll inom delaktigheten när det kommer till vård vid livets slutskede, utan anhöriga har en viktig roll i detta men blir oftast bortglömda.

Syfte: Syftet med denna litteraturöversikt är att beskriva anhörigas upplevelser och erfarenheter i samband med vård i livets slutskede inom slutenvården.

Metod: Detta arbete utformas som en strukturerad litteraturöversikt sammanlagt inkluderades 12 vetenskapliga artiklar som publicerades mellan 2013–2023. Dessa artiklar identifierades via databaserna PubMed och CINAHL.

Resultat: I resultat framkommer fyra kategorier som är: Beslutfattande, Kommunikation, och Stöd till anhöriga.

Slutsats: Att vara anhöriga och ha en sjuk närstående kan vara påfrestande speciellt närde inte vet vad deras roll är. I en sådan situation är det viktigt att både vårdpersonalen och den sjukes anhöriga kan kommunicera för att skapa en trygg slutenvårds miljö, känna sig stödda och på det vis bli mer delaktiga i patientens vård.

Abstract [en]

Background: For both the patient and relatives to receive good and safe care, it is required that the nurse works from a holistic perspective where the patient together with their family members is put in focus. It is not always that family members feel that they are being heard while they have a relative who is at the end of life. It is not only important for the patient to be able to have a role in participation when it comes to care at the end of life, but relatives have an important role in this but are often forgotten.

Aim: Relatives interprets and experience in connection with end-of-life care in inpatient care.

Method: This work is designed as a structured literature review that focuses on relatives' point of view of their role when it comes to end-of-life care. A total of 12 scientific articles published between 2013–2023 were included. These articles were identified via the databases PubMed and CINAHL.

Results: The results show three categories which are: Decision-making, Communication, and Support to family members.

Conclusions: Being relatives and having a sick family member can be stressful especially when they don't know what their role is. In such a situation, it is important that both the healthcare staff and the patient's relatives can communicate in order to create a safe care environment, feel supported and thus become more involved in the patient's care.
