Abstract(s)
INTRODUCTION. Parental exercise itself constitutes a very demanding challenge –
however, when pregnancy occurs in adolescence, often unplanned, it converges
tasks of di'erent stages of development, irreversibly modifying an identity, roles
and functions, not only of the young woman, but also of her family.
OBJECTIVES. Applying the Dynamic Model of Family Assessment and Intervention
(MDAIF), by Figueiredo (2012), and assessing the impact of nursing care in the promotion
of skills for a transition to the parental role’s exercise in the teenager and
her family.
METHODS. Qualitative study, conducted based on MDAIF, as a theoretical and operational
reference, in clinical and community context in Primary Health Care, based
on the process of family intervention who experienced an adolescent pregnancy.
Seven nursing consultations to family were carried out, as a unit, from April to May
2016.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION. Extended family, with several subsystems and strict limits.
Middle-class family. Although unplanned, and the antagonistic relationship with
her parents, the instrumental and emotional support provided by them became
critical in adapting to motherhood and the newborn’s development.
CONCLUSIONS. With MDAIF’s use, nurses have developed their skills for a personalized
approach to the family, centered on the adaptation and holistic transition to the
parental process. It also made it possible to respond to the identi+ed family needs,
not only through the restructuring of a parental and personal identity, based on
values, personal and professional goals and priorities (the teenager pursued her
academic training), but also promoting a family environment based on trust and
harmony
