dc.description.abstractAims and objectives: This study intended to contribute to the improvement of nursing care for both children and their parents and aimed to identify the best and worst experiences of school-aged children during hospitalisation.pt_PT
dc.description.abstractBackground: Child hospitalisation has traditionally been studied from the parent's perspective, but studies in which the child is the subject are scarce and mainly focus on to the hospitalisation experiences.pt_PT
dc.description.abstractDesign: A cross-sectional, observational and descriptive exploratory design was used, and STROBE reporting guidelines were followed.pt_PT
dc.description.abstractMethods: A paper survey was applied by the primary researcher within a 3 months period to 252 children. It presented two open-ended statements: ‘In my opinion the best thing about the hospital is …’ and ‘In my opinion the worst thing about the hospital is…’. The study was submitted and approved by the national data protection commission and also by the ethics committees of each of the six institutions where the study was undertaken. Informed consent was also obtained from children and parents.pt_PT
dc.description.abstractResults: Answers were analysed through content analysis. Five categories were identified for each of the open-ended statements. Children identified ‘people’, ‘physical environment’, ‘activities’, ‘outcomes’ and ‘food’ as best experiences. The worst experiences included: ‘feelings’, ‘activities’, ‘food’, ‘environment’ and ‘outcomes’.pt_PT
dc.description.abstractConclusions: The results allowed the identification of the children's most valued aspects of hospitalisation.pt_PT
dc.description.abstractRelevance to Clinical Practice: The results should be considered by healthcare professionals in order to make the hospitalisation experience more positive from the perspective of the school-aged children.pt_PT
