Abstract
Objectives: to analyze the factors of pleasure and distress of nurses in the care of hospitalized children undergoing institutionalization in a pediatric unit.
Methods: a qualitative descriptive study, carried out in a university hospital in southern Brazil, with the participation of 11 nurses. Information was collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed according to thematic analysis proposed by Minayo, resulting in two analytical categories.
Results: nurses reported professional fulfillment, involvement in health education, and bonding with children as factors that generated pleasure at work. However, cases of child abuse, disengagement at discharge, and invasive procedures were mentioned as factors of distress.
Final considerations: carrying out this study provided an opportunity to understand the specificities of feelings of pleasure and distress verbalized by nurses in light of the Psychodynamics of Work, helping managers to articulate practices that provide reflection on the topic in work environments.
