Experiences of women with breast cancer: a research-care

Abstract

Aim: to know the experience of women with breast cancer, based on the Theory of Transpersonal Care, and to carry out the educational care of these women, while the meaning expressed by the discourses emerged, mediated by the research-care. Method: this is a qualitative study, with 19 women attended in a support association for people with cancer, carried out from September/2015 to June/2016 in Minas Gerais, Brazil. The interview and the participant observation were used to collect the information; the analysis of the elements was based on the thematic analysis. Results: the analysis resulted in three main categories: favoring beliefs and maintaining faith and hope; impressions about the care received; and the nurse in the process of educational care. A humanized and educational care was carried out, with guidelines and education in health, enabling support to the health-sickness-treatment process of the cared-for. Conclusion: actions based not only on scientific knowledge but on transpersonal care with interaction and exchange between the being-researched and the being-researcher were promoted.
