| Summary: | Purpose
The purpose of this study is to describe psychiatric nurses' and diabetes nurses' experiences of care with hospitalized patients with schizophrenia and diabetes.
Design and Methods
Eight psychiatric nurses and diabetes nurses were interviewed, and the data material was analyzed using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA).
Findings
The analysis showed that nurses lack knowledge about schizophrenia, diabetes, and intersectoral collaboration. It triggers feelings of uncertainty and incapacity.
Practice Implications
There is a need for more knowledge and organizational adjustments to underpin a more cohesive care to improve living conditions, so that patients may be able to self‐manage their illnesses. |
