An emergent grounded theory was used to examine Professionalizing Familial Care, the processes by which registered nurses enact professional care work within the familial care domain. A sample of registered nurses (n = 32) were interviewed by telephone at multiple time points over a 6- to 12-month period. The findings revealed that the professionalization of care work was often reinforced by societal, familial, and self-expectations. Setting Limits and Making Connections were the dialectical overarching processes shaping the professionalizing of care while 6 interdependent substrategies emerged: assessing, advising, advocating, collaborating, coordinating, and consulting. These findings will help inform refinement of policies and practices for nurses who provide care for an older relative.
采用一种新兴的扎根理论来研究家庭护理专业化，即注册护士在家庭护理领域开展专业护理工作的过程。在6至12个月的时间里，通过电话对32名注册护士进行了多次访谈。研究结果表明，护理工作的专业化常常受到社会、家庭和自我期望的强化。设定界限和建立联系是塑造护理专业化的辩证总体过程，同时出现了6种相互依存的子策略：评估、建议、倡导、协作、协调和咨询。这些研究结果将有助于为照顾老年亲属的护士完善政策和实践提供参考。
