The Sami are an indigenous population with multiple languages and dialects living in northern areas of Sweden, Norway, Finland, and the Kola Peninsula. The South Sami population lives in central regions of Sweden and Norway, and consist of about 2000 people. In this study, 56 older South Sami people from Sweden participated. Semi-structured interviews were conducted over the telephone and analysed through qualitative content analysis. The main findings show that older South Sami people's expectations of having care providers with a South Sami background speaking South Sami in home nursing care contain contradictions in and between participants. Participants had different preferences regarding having care providers with a South Sami background speaking South Sami in the future. When providing care to older South Sami people, individual adjustments are of importance, and our study showed that participants had different expectations despite having similar backgrounds.
萨米人是居住在瑞典、挪威、芬兰北部地区以及科拉半岛的一个拥有多种语言和方言的原住民群体。南萨米人群体生活在瑞典和挪威的中部地区，约有2000人。在本研究中，56名来自瑞典的南萨米族老年人参与其中。通过电话进行了半结构化访谈，并通过定性内容分析进行了分析。主要研究结果表明，南萨米族老年人期望家庭护理中有具备南萨米族背景且会说南萨米语的护理人员，而参与者内部以及他们之间存在矛盾。参与者对于未来有具备南萨米族背景且会说南萨米语的护理人员有不同的偏好。在为南萨米族老年人提供护理时，个体调整很重要，并且我们的研究表明，尽管参与者背景相似，但他们的期望却各不相同。
