“…Perhaps the teacher or school health nurse could determine if the school-aged children of parents having deafblindness are in need of any support, as they are part of the child’s everyday life. It has been found that children value a health dialogue with the school health nurse, as it give them an opportunity to discuss their own health and situation (Granrud et al, 2020 ; Rising Holmström & Boström, 2021 ). However, collaboration with other professionals in school are important for the school health nurses to identify and support children having problems (Granrud et al, 2019 ).…”

Introduction The family life of people living with one family member with deafblindness has been sparsely described. Purpose The aim of the study was to explore how children experience their everyday family life when having a parent with deafblindness. Methods An explorative study in which data have been collected by qualitative interviews of children. Qualitative content analysis has been used for analysing the data. Results Overall theme; Living an ordinary life—yet not, is based on four categories with subcategories. A family like any other describes: Having the same family life as their friends, Acting like other children and It is what it is. Different everyday life describes: Acknowledging differences, Adjusting to the parent’s needs and Financial strain. Being there for the parent describes: Helping the parent and Protecting the parent from harm. Being emotionally affected describes: Feelings of frustration, Feelings of compassion and Need for support. Conclusion Children as relatives of parents with deafblindness have been given a voice. The children live an ordinary life, but at the same time a different ordinary life. Professionals need to take the child and their needs into account when support is given.

“… Borgman et al (2020) found a significant association between having pain and having depressive symptoms, meaning adolescents reporting pain may have other problems as well. The school nurses in the current study wanted to make a difference by showing how much they care about adolescents’ mental health and to be a supportive adult with an open-door policy, which is described by Granrud et al (2020) as being an important way of reaching out to boys. The importance of the open-door policy was emphasized by the school nurses also in previous studies in Sweden and Norway ( Morberg et al, 2012 ; Skundberg-Kletthagen & Moen, 2017 ).…”

Introduction An increased number of adolescents experience mental health problems. School nurses have described spending more than 50% of their time working with mental health in students. The lack of knowledge and necessary training to meet students’ mental health needs has been described previously. School nurses have a responsibility to find and guide those who need help with mental health problems. Objectives The aim of this study was, therefore, to explore school nurses’ experiences with mental health and how they in this work identify, talk, and intervene with adolescents having mental health problems. Methods A qualitative study was conducted with 21 school nurses using focus group interviews which were analyzed by means of content analysis. Results Three descriptive categories emerged: Health-promoting or preventive approaches, Enabling students to talk about feelings, and Collaborating partners. Conclusion School nurses highlight their mandate to work with health promotion and prevention but also draw attention to their difficulties in identifying those who need help. School nurses use their creativity, intuition, and knowledge but have difficulty identifying those students who need help with mental health problems. They also highlight collaboration with other professionals both in schools and in the health system.

S obzirom na rizike mentalnoga zdravlja, adolescencija pripada u kritična životna razdoblja, a osim čimbenika iz obiteljskog konteksta, za mentalno zdravlje od velike su važnosti i oni povezani sa školskim zahtjevima. U ovome radu analizirani su podaci prikupljani od 141 polaznika zdravstvenih programa tijekom četiri godine njihova srednjoškolskog obrazovanja. Prikupljani su podaci o učestalosti negativnih automatskih misli povezanih sa strahom od neuspjeha i ohrabrujućih automatskih misli za vrijeme učenja u ispitnim razdobljima pri kraju nastavne godine. Svrha istraživanja bila je provjeriti smjer i doprinos pozitivnih i negativnih automatskih misli u predviđanju dugoročnih emocionalnih ishoda, odnosno razine emocionalne uznemirenosti na kraju srednje škole. Osim deskriptivne analize, u obradi rezultata primijenjena je multipla regresijska analiza. Ovisno o godini obrazovanja, oko 16 % sudionika za vrijeme učenja ima iznadprosječno učestale negativne automatskih misli, 13 do 18 % pozitivne automatske misli, dok 16 do 18 % sudionika ima iznadprosječnu razinu opće emocionalne uznemirenosti. Rezultati su pokazali kako u ispitnim razdobljima pri kraju nastavne godine 15 % sudionika ima iznadprosječno povišenu razinu emocionalne uznemirenosti kroz više godina, pa i na završetku srednje škole. Negativne automatske misli povezane sa strahom od neuspjeha za vrijeme učenja na kraju drugog i trećeg razreda dobro predviđaju razinu emocionalne uznemirenosti na kraju srednje škole, što upućuje na važnost negativnih kognitivnih procjena za dugoročne nepovoljne emocionalne ishode. Prediktivnost pozitivnih misli u predviđanju dugoročnih emocionalnih ishoda nije potvrđena. Rezultati se komentiraju u kontekstu Lazarusove teorije stresa i suočavanja te Beckova kognitivnog modela disfunkcionalnog i neadaptivnog ponašanja.
