Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka hur anställda inom rättspsykiatrin ser på relationen mellan sig själva och vårdtagarna, samt att studera de olika aspekter som berör relationen i vårdandet, bland annat maktrelationen och vänskapsrelationen. Uppsatsen baseras på en kvalitativ studiemetod med semistrukturerade intervjuer. Nio stycken anställda vårdare (undersköterskor och skötare) från en avdelning inom rättspsykiatrin i Växjö deltar i studien. Resultatet visar att relationen mellan vårdare och vårdtagare är en viktig aspekt inom vården, och att relationen är basen inom vården för att kunna erbjuda bra vård till patienten. Intervjupersonerna menar att: En bra relation mellan vårdare och vårdtagare kännetecknas av att vårdaren ska kunna skapa förtroende, tillit i relationen, samt stödja och tillfredsställa patientens behov med hjälp av relationen.

Bakgrund: Internationell forskning påvisar att sjuksköterskans genuina omvårdnadsarbete försvåras inom den rättspsykiatriska vården. Kärnan i denna problematik är den tvetydighet som uppstår då sjuksköterskan förväntas bedriva en etiskt grundad omvårdnad gentemot patienter som vårdas mot sin vilja. Forskning, särskilt ur ett kunskapsteoretiskt perspektiv, saknas gällande sjuksköterskors möjlighet att använda sin professionsspecifika kunskap inom den rättspsykiatriska slutenvården. Syfte: Studiens syfte var att beskriva sjuksköterskans möjlighet att tillämpa sin professionella kunskap inom den rättspsykiatriska slutenvården. Metod: Empirisk studie med kvalitativ ansats baserad på tematiskt utarbetade, interaktiva intervjuer med sex sjuksköterskor verksamma vid en rättspsykiatrisk klinik i en svensk storstad.

The purpose with this essay was to study the judgements made by child- and adolescents psychiatry teams on a fictitious case, in order to see what similarities and differences there would be in their way of discussing, judging and proposing efforts.We carried out this study by visiting four child- and adolescents psychiatry teams and letting them make judgements on a fictitious case constructed by us. First the teams were introduced to a vignette and then asked to complete it by requiring more information till they considered themselves to have enough information to be able to arrive to a judgement on the case and propose efforts, on which we later interviewed the teams. After the interviews we compared what extra information the teams required, what judgements they made and what efforts they chose to offer the family. The result was analysed from a social constructivist perspective. One central analysis concept was diagnostic frame, which is about in what category the team places the problem.The study revealed that the judgements, which are socially constructed within the teams, differed, and that the teams offered the fictitious family different efforts.
