BACKGROUND:
Communication plays a key role in nursing care. WHO emphasizes the importance of the nurse's use of communication skills in ensuring a high standard of care. Therapeutic communication aims to promote the well-being of the person with his or her needs, facilitate adherence to the care pathway and establish a relationship of mutual trust and respect between the nurse and the person. This form of communication is the crucial foundation on which effective home care is based.
AIMS:
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the ways in which home nursing contributes to establishing a therapeutic relationship with the person being cared for, the family and the caregiver.
METHODS:
The research question were identified throught the PIO framework (Population, Intervention, Outcome). Subsequently, a narrative literature review was performed by consulting the biomedical databases of CINAHL, EMBASE, Ovid MEDLINE and SCOPUS to search for articles.
RESULTS:
10 articles were included. In each of these articles, various communication modes by the home care nurse in the home care setting were identified and highlighted.
CONCLUSIONS:
The findings reveal the importance of therapeutic communication in the home care setting; potential obstacles that nurses may face in implementing communication were highlighted. The need for qualitative studies in Italy to explore the issues that emerged and deepen understanding of the effect of therapeutic communication on the well-being of caregivers is emphasized.
