“…The goal of MAPUs is to rapidly assess and refer patients; therefore, nurses in our study appeared to adopt an attitude that valued efficiency and clinical assessments over all other activities. For instance, nurses in our study prioritised the assessment of patients and facilitated family participation in care if it reduced their workload but restricted participation if it was perceived to delayed or hinder their workflow, a finding which is consistent with other research (Benzein et al., ; Porter, Miller, Giannis, & Coombs, ). For example, Sharp et al.…”

Aim The study explored the views and attitudes of nurses and physicians on family presence during resuscitation in emergency departments in Brazil. Background International emergency associations endorse family presence during resuscitation; however, the extent to which it is practiced remains unclear, particularly in the Brazilian context. Research of emergency staff views and attitudes towards this practice is desirable so that actions can be identified to support families at the bedside. Methods A qualitative research was conducted. Thirty‐two health professionals (11 physicians and 21 nurses) working in two emergency departments in southern Brazil were purposefully recruited in January 2015. In‐depth interviews were conducted, and data were analysed using content analysis. Findings Nurses and physicians found family presence during resuscitation controversial and the general attitude towards this practice was negative. They reported that ‘changes are needed’ to adapt hospital infrastructures for family presence, and to train staff to respond to the information and emotional needs of families. Discussion Translating a family nursing framework into clinical practice involves the need for reassessing educational and management policies in clinical contexts. Conclusion This research brings new understanding about the attitudes of some Brazilian nurses and physicians on the implementation of family presence during resuscitation and identifies the need to develop policies and strategies to improve family presence in emergency departments. Implications for nursing and health policy Hospital‐based policies are required to improve family‐centred care in emergency departments while providing a criterion of legality and safety to professionals to invite families to be present during invasive procedures. Also, family‐focused education in health science degrees, continuing education and in the community is required.

Background: Worldwide, policies exist on family presence during resuscitation (FPDR), however, this is still lacking in the Gulf Corporation Countries (GCC) in general and in the Kingdom of Bahrain in particular. The aim of this study is to assess the perspectives of healthcare providers (HP) on FPDR among those working in the emergency departments (EDs) in the Kingdom. Methods: A self-administered anonymous electronic survey was collected from 146 HPs (emergency physicians and nurses) working in the three major EDs in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Besides demographic data, 18 items measuring HPs’ perceptions of FPDR were generated using the 5-point Likert scale.Results: Surveys (n= 146) from physicians and nurses were analysed (45.9% vs. 54.1%, respectively). There were significant differences between physicians and nurses in terms of personal beliefs, FPDR enhancing professional satisfaction and behaviour, and the importance of a support person and saying goodbye (p< 0.001). However, general responses demonstrated that the majority of HPs encouraged and supported FPDR, but with greater support from physicians than nurses. Conclusion: The study reflects that many HPs in EDs participated in and are familiar with FPDR, with the majority of ED physicians supporting it. Further studies should investigate the reasons for the lack of support from nurses. Results may contribute to the development of hospital ED policies that allow FPDR in the region.
