The nurse's experiences of meeting patients with a different cultural background : - A literature study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Miljoner av människor rör sig ständigt mellan länder av olika orsaker. Det är vanligt att sjuksköterskor vårdar och bemöter människor med en annan kulturell bakgrund. Forskning visar på att hälsoproblem hos migranter skiljer sig från den inhemska befolkningen. Således är det viktigt att sjuksköterskan besitter kunskap om olika kulturer för att tillgodose unika behov och därmed uppfylla en säker och personcentrerad vård. Syfte: var att belysa sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av att vårda patienter med en annan kulturell bakgrund. Metod: Studien genomfördes som en allmän strukturerad litteraturöversikt med induktiv ansats utifrån 12 resultatartiklar. Resultat: Utfallet resulterade i två teman: Erfarenheter av svårigheter i mötet med patienterna och Erfarenheter av kulturella olikheter med tillhörande underteman. Konklusion: Resultatet visade på att språket var en viktig del av kommunikationen, när det fanns språkbarriärer var det svårare att skapa en relation med patienten. När kulturell kompetens saknades upplevde sjuksköterskorna detta vara ett hinder som kunde skapa en osäkerhet i omvårdnaden. Erfarenheten i mötet med patienterna visade på att religion och olika preferenser kunde upplevas frustrerande samt tidskrävande, vilket kunde leda till etiska dilemman. 

Abstract [en]

Background: Millions of people are constantly migrating between countries for various reasons. It is common for nurses to care for and treat people with a different cultural background. Research shows that the health problems of migrants differ from the domestic population. Therefore, it is important that the nurse possesses knowledge of different cultures to meet unique needs to meet a safe and person-centered care. Purpose: was to shed light on the nurses' experiences of caring for patients with a different cultural background. Method: The study was conducted as a general structured literature review with an inductive approach based on 12 result articles. Results: The outcome resulted in two themes: Experiences of difficulties in meeting patients and Experiences of cultural differences with associated sub-themes. Conclusion: The result showed that language was an important part of communication, when there were language barriers it was more difficult to create a relationship with the patient. When cultural competence was lacking, the nurses perceived this as an obstacle that could create uncertainty in nursing. The experience in the meeting with the patients showed that religion and different preferences could be experienced as frustrating and time-consuming, which could lead to ethical dilemmas.
