Sammanfattning
The paper describes a Norwegian
study from 1998, (2) based on a
phenomenological approach
where six mothers are interviewed.
The mothers stayed together
with their children in hospital.
The children were hospitalized
for minor surgery. They stayed in
hospital for three to four days at
a small section for children location
at a ward for adults. The
children were from four to eleven
years old. This paper focuses
division of labour and responsibility
between mothers and nurses,
during hospital stays for children.
In Norway such interactions are
regulated by law (1). The findings
from this study indicate that the
mothers take responsibility for
basic mothering care. According
to the mothers the nurses involvement
in nursing care for the children
is reduced by the presence of
the mothers in the ward.
