Nursing care of children hospitalized with respiratory diseases from the point of view of parents.
ŠÁTAVOVÁ, Iva
Current state: Respiratory diseases are commonly encountered during our lifetime. A very common group affected by this disease are most often children. Many authors state that this is because children do not have a sufficiently mature immune system and are also frequent participants in larger groups. In this paper, we focused on parents who experience hospitalization with their child, just because of respiratory illness. Objectives of the work: Two objectives were set for this thesis. The first objective focused on how nursing care is provided to their children with respiratory illness from the parents' perspective. The second objective was to map the parents' attitudes towards this nursing care for their hospitalized child. Methodology: Qualitative research method was chosen for the research investigation of this bachelor thesis. The technique of semi-structured interviews with parents of children hospitalized in the pediatric ward with respiratory disease was used for data collection. The dialogues were recorded using the "Dictate" function and then analysed using the open coding technique "pencil and paper". The size of research sample was determined based on the theoretical saturation of the collected data. Results: The results of the survey showed that parents of children hospitalized with respiratory disease are satisfied with the nursing care provided to their children. Parents are informed and educated on the children's wards about the provision of nursing care and are also actively involved in nursing care. In nursing care, each parent takes a supportive stance for their hospitalized child. Parents also strive to establish a calmer environment and conditions for their child while performing nursing activities.
