ABSTRACT This study aimed to understand how nursing professionals perceive the care provided to patients with terminal illness in the hospital environment. This was an exploratory study with a qualitative approach, conducted with 23 professionals in the ambulatory service of a university hospital in southern Brazil. Semi-structured interviews were used for data collection, in 2011. Using discursive textual analysis, dialogue was shown to be a fundamental instrument in caring for patients in terminal illness, enabling the facilitation of the difficulties experienced by these patients and their families. The importance of family presence for these patients was identified, making it indispensable for caring for their loved one. Continuous education of the staff is necessary, using problematization of the difficulties experienced in the workplace, humanizing and qualifying the nursing care, ensuring dignity and comfort to patients and their families.

ABSTRACT Objective: to reflect on nursing care for women undergoing parturition from the perspective of nursing professionals. Method: this is a study with a qualitative approach based on Convergent Care Research. The participants were 36 nursing professionals, who developed assistance activities for women undergoing parturition in an Obstetric and Gynecological Surgical Center of a University Hospital in southern Brazil. For data collection, the convergence group discussion technique was used, through audio-recorded thematic workshops following the phases of the process called Four Rs (4Rs), from June to August 2017. The data were analyzed using the thematic analysis proposed by Creswell, supported by the Iramuteq software. Results: five classes emerged: weaknesses/limitations in the parturition process; ambience and human resources in the parturition process; imposition of care and lack of privacy for women in the parturition process; process of being born: the understanding of nursing professionals; and contributions in the care process for a better birth. Conclusion: the present study allowed understanding the relationships of the nursing care for women in the process of parturition, identifying the barriers and weaknesses in the care process, reflecting and discussing possibilities for the systematization of nursing care in the parturition process.

A descriptive study with a qualitative approach that aimed to identify the repercussions of ostomy construction on the living process of people with an ostomy. The study was performed at a Stomatherapy Service from a university hospital in southern Brazil, in the first semester of 2011, with eight patients. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, and they were analyzed by thematic analysis. We found that the surgery happened to prevent patient deaths. Patients presented themselves as disheartened, angry, sad, having doubts, and they sought to keep the ostomy a secret. They were concerned with the acquisition of resources for self-care. They may present complications and experience embarrassing situations because of the stoma. However, they perceived that they could live with a stoma and regain joy. We concluded that they were able to reframe their lives. We highlight the role of nurses, enabling them for self-care, constituting part of their social support network, helping them to become able to live independently.
