This qualitative study used a Husserlian phenomenological approach to obtain an understanding of the essences of five experienced Taiwanese school nurses' lived experience of caring for students with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Audio-recorded, semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted. Data analysis entailed a modified method from Colaizzi. Four intertwined themes were discovered: (a) I try to put myself in the parents' and students' shoes, (b) I am not a diabetes expert, (c) managing T1DM requires teamwork, and (d) caring for students with T1DM is a struggle with practical limitations. The findings show that these school nurses encountered many challenges as they implemented their roles and responsibilities in caring for students with T1DM. The findings suggest that increasing school nurses' competence in caring for students with T1DM and developing effective strategies to overcome the challenges faced may be useful. Multidisciplinary teamwork could benefit the diabetes management activities in school settings.
这项定性研究采用胡塞尔现象学方法，以了解五位经验丰富的台湾学校护士照顾1型糖尿病（T1DM）学生的生活经历本质。研究进行了录音的半结构化深度访谈。数据分析采用了来自科莱齐的改良方法。发现了四个相互交织的主题：（a）我试图设身处地为家长和学生着想，（b）我不是糖尿病专家，（c）管理T1DM需要团队合作，（d）照顾T1DM学生是与实际限制的斗争。研究结果表明，这些学校护士在履行照顾T1DM学生的职责时遇到了许多挑战。研究结果表明，提高学校护士照顾T1DM学生的能力并制定有效策略来克服所面临的挑战可能会有所帮助。多学科团队合作可能有益于学校环境中的糖尿病管理活动。
