O atendimento por instituição pública de saúde: percepção de famílias de doentes com câncer

Este estudo objetivou analisar como as familias de pessoas com câncer perceberam o atendimento prestado pelos profissionais de um ambulatorio publico especializado, utilizando Analise Tematica de Bardin. Foram entrevistadas 7 familias, totalizando 14 membros familiares que, em seus discursos, enfatizaram a relacao medico-paciente, avaliando-a como impessoal e superficial, gerando inseguranca e descrenca. A familia procura participar, mas sente-se pouco valorada e excluida do cuidado. As informacoes necessarias e nao recebidas sao buscadas na midia, e o conforto e alcancado na espiritualidade. A formacao dos diversos profissionais da saude precisa estimular o olhar para a familia como unidade de cuidado, articulando formacao e modos de cuidar em saude.

Estrutura e funcionalidade da rede de apoio social do adulto com câncer

Objective: To characterize the social support network of adults with cancer. Methods: A quantitative, exploratory, descriptive, cross-sectional research study conducted with adults with cancer, between August-November 2010, in their homes, using the Convoy of Social Support, and analysis of data with Microsoft Excel 2003. Results: Sixty-nine patients were consulted and cited 506 members in their support networks, aged 1 to 89 years, the majority being female, residing within 30 minutes of the patient’s home and who were encountered daily. Of the support contemplated in the diagram, patients perceived that they gave more support than they received, except “Caring in a situation of disease.” The type of support provided and received most was “Respect” and the least was “Caring in a situation of disease.” Conclusion: This study demonstrated the relevancy of affective bonds for patients and pointed out the limitation of families as unique supportive bonds.
