Interactionist view of circumstances that interfere with nurses' lifestyle. Rev Bras Enferm. 2019 Feb;72(suppl 1):74-79 Authors: Braga ACG, Valadares GV, David FS, Rosa LS Abstract OBJECTIVE: To analyze the circumstances interfering with nurses' lifestyle. METHOD: Qualitative study in light of the premises of the Grounded Theory and with theoretical reference of the Symbolic Interactionism. The study was conducted with 20 nurses from the municipality of Pinheiral, state of Rio de Janeiro. RESULTS: The interference of work in nurses' lifestyle was unanimous and expressed by the union of the following subcategories: blaming work for sedentary habits; recording the lack of time; justifying physical/mental fatigue by the lack of healthy habits; emphasizing the financial situation; and exchanging self-care for the care of the other. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: The results showed nurses' complex life, as well as new possibilities for conducting daily choices. The need for actions that reduce the impact of workdays and contribute to these professionals incorporating a better lifestyle is noteworthy. PMID: 30942347 [PubMed - in process]
