: A burn injury to a child is a traumatic event and the parent's emotional reactions and coping strategies affect the child's adaptive outcome. It is therefore important that parents get the right support. The aim was to explore parents' lived experiences of their need for support when having a child admitted to a burn centre. : Semi-structured face-to-face interviews were conducted with 22 parents of children age <12 years hospitalised with an accidental burn injury, 9 to 27 days after the burn accident, from April 2017 to July 2018. A Ricoeur-inspired textual analysis method was used. : Four themes emerged from the analysis and describe the parents' needs for support. The parents wanted to be taken care of as a whole family and feel safe in the hands of professionals. This, in turn, depended on being informed about the child's condition and treatment, but also on getting help in dealing with feelings of guilt. Not least, parents wanted opportunities to take care of their own fundamental needs in terms of hygiene, food, adequate rest and activities. : As an overall understanding the healthcare providers should focus on the family as a whole in care and treatment.
: 儿童烧伤是一种创伤性事件，父母的情绪反应和应对策略会影响孩子的适应结果。因此，父母获得正确的支持非常重要。本研究旨在探讨父母在孩子因意外烧伤住院期间对支持的需求的亲身经历。 : 2017 年 4 月至 2018 年 7 月，对 22 名年龄<12 岁的儿童的父母进行了半结构化的面对面访谈，这些儿童在烧伤事故发生后 9-27 天因意外烧伤住院。采用了 Ricoeur 启发的文本分析方法。 : 分析产生了四个主题，描述了父母的支持需求。父母希望作为一个整体家庭得到照顾，并在专业人员的手中感到安全。这反过来又取决于了解孩子的病情和治疗情况，但也取决于在处理内疚感方面得到帮助。父母还希望有机会照顾自己在卫生、食物、充足休息和活动方面的基本需求。 : 总体而言，医护人员应关注整个家庭的护理和治疗。
