Syftet var att undersöka vad som framkallade upplevelser av stress hos sjuksköterskor inom kommunal äldrevård samt att belysa hur sjuksköterskorna gjorde för att hantera dessa situationer. Studien hade en kvalitativ deskriptiv design och data samlades in med hjälp av enskilda intervjuer med sex sjuksköterskor. Materialet analyserades enligt Graneheim och Lundmans kvalitativa innehållsanalys. Resultatet visade att sjuksköterskorna hade egna krav som inte kunde motsvaras och att verksamheten stundtals inte gav förutsättningar för sjuksköterskorna att utföra ett bra omvårdnadsarbete. Vårdpersonal och anhöriga ställde ibland högre krav än vad sjuksköterskorna kunde motsvara vilket kunde leda till en känsla av frustration.
