Sammanfattning
The aim of this study is to describe nurses´ strategies to bring out empathy when encountering
patients who are felt difficult to empathize with.
The study is empirical and based on qualitative semi-structured interviews with registered nurses at
a surgical ward. The data material was
analyzed using content analysis. The result of the study shows that nurses employ different types of
deliberate strategies in order to secure an
empathetic treatment of these patients. In the study, the strategies are summarized in four head
categories: strategies focusing on the patient,
to decide upon one's set of mind, strategies focusing on oneself and indirect factors.
