Sammanfattning

The sensory garden is understood as a cultivated area used in caring for persons who suffer from dementia. There is previous knowledge about the significance of the sensory garden in nursing homes, but we know little about how it can be developed as part of the nursing care of older persons. Action research using appreciative interviews was conducted with thirteen participants. The aim of the study was to collect and illuminate nurses’, assistant nurses’ and managers’ experiences and wishes about nature and sensory gardens, in order to increase understanding of nature's possibilities and meaning in nursing home care. Findings show that caregivers’ awareness of their personal relationship with nature can be a source of knowledge for nursing care, and inspired by health geography, further perspectives for the development of sensory gardens may be uncovered. The study forms the basis for nursing care intervention in the community.
