Aspekter på sjukgymnasters bemötande av patienter
intervjuer med tre patienter och en sjukgymnast
The aim of the study was to investigate the importance of the interaction between the physiotherapist and the patient. Semistructured interviews were carried out with three patients and one physiotherapist. A qualitative design with content analysis was used. The data analysis led to classification of four categories. These were communication, confidence, expectations and participation. A good interaction between the physiotherapist and the patient could increase the patient?s confidence in the physiotherapist, the patient?s cooperation, participation and even increase the opportunity for a better treatment situation.
