Factors that affect the communication between nurse and patient : A literature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: En god kommunikation är betydelsefullt inom omvårdnaden och är en av sjuksköterskans primära arbetsuppgift. Sjuksköterskan bör ha en god kommunikationsförmåga som är personcentrerad. Brister i kommunikationen kan leda till missförstånd mellan patienten och sjuksköterskan. Syfte: Syftet var att belysa faktorer som påverkar kommunikationen mellan sjuksköterskan och patienten; utifrån sjuksköterskans perspektiv. Metod: Studien genomfördes som en allmän litteraturstudie. Resultat: Sjuksköterskorna upplevde flera olika faktorer som påverkade kommunikationen med patienten. Resultatet delades in i fyra kategorier som belyser olika faktorer; Språkskillnader, Kulturella skillnader, Arbetsmiljöns påverkan, Funktionsnedsättningar och svår sjukdom hos patienten. Konklusion: Språkbarriärer resulterade i missförstånd och kommunikationssvårigheter, vilket utgjorde en återkommande utmaning inom vården. Brist på personal och fortsatt hög patientomsättning ledde till tidsbrist och hög arbetsbelastning för sjuksköterskorna, vilket gjorde att kommunikationen inte prioriterades. Svår sjukdom eller funktionsnedsättningar hos patienten var en utmanande omständighet för att åstadkomma en god kommunikation, därav användes icke verbal kommunikation för att underlätta interaktionen. 

Abstract [en]

Background: A good communication is important in nursing and is one of the nurse ́s primary tasks. The nurse should have a good communication ability that is person centered. Lack of communication can lead to misunderstandings between the patient and the nurse. Purpose: The purpose was to highlight factors that affect communication between nurse and patient: from the nurse's perspective. Method: The study was conducted as a general literature study. Result: The nurses experienced several different factors that affected communication with the patient. The results were divided into four categories that highlight different factors: Language differences, Cultural differences, Impact of the work environment, Disabilities and severe disease in the patient. Conclusion: Language barriers resulted in misunderstandings and communication difficulties, which was a recurring challenge in healthcare. Lack of staff and continued high patient turnover, led to lack of time and high workload for the nurses, which meant that communication was not prioritized. Severe illness or disability in the patient became a challenging circumstance to achieve effective communication, hence non-verbal communication was used to facilitate the interaction.
