    Abstract [en]

    The proportion of the dementia-ill increases with the ageing population. This results in an increase of dementia-ill in the somatic care as well. Previous research has pointed out difficulties in treating patients with dementia disease in a hospital setting. The objective of the study was to investigate the nurses experience of nursing somaticly ill patients with dementia disease in a somatic ward. Interviewing was used as method of data collection and the data was analysed with a phenomenographic approach. Aggregatively the result of the study shows that many nurses experienced an appreciation towards the contact with dementia-ill patients, but that they at the same time in the nursing care function felt limited by several factors. These were mostly environmental and logistical, but also strictly personal prerequisites such as knowledge and understanding. These factors could contribute to a worry concerning the safety of the patients as well as a professional inadequacy, which not rarely made the nurses feel unsatisfied with their work. The study confirm previous research regarding the problems with nursing dementia-ill adequately in a hospital setting, but elaborate further factors that impact the nursing situation such as transfers on and between wards as well as between health care establishments. The result of the study indicates the need of a greater focus in the undergraduate education for nurses, improved collaboration between different caregivers and an effort on capacity building. This should improve the nursing of dementia-ill patients in somatic wards. This ought also to reduce the nurses feeling of inadequacy and increase their work satisfaction whilst working with dementia-ill patients.
