Abstract

The present research refers to the perception of patients with chronic renal failure about the care provided by the nursing staff of the Dialvida Ambato Hemodialysis center. The objective was to describe the perception of patients with chronic renal failure regarding the care provided by the nursing staff of the Dialvida Ambato Hemodialysis Center. For this, a qualitative, descriptive, cross-sectional, field and prospective study was carried out to find out the ideas, thoughts and opinions of patients with chronic renal failure who undergo hemodialysis on nursing care. Due to its effect, the study technique that was carried out was the semi-structured interview with a total of 14 patients, fulfilling the information saturation criterion. The results in the following research were phenomenological, conceptual and descriptive of the perception of nursing care, humanized care and the influence of the disease process in daily life. The conclusions that were obtained from the research were positive and of satisfaction regarding nursing care and humanized care, but negative responses were found such as lack of acceptance and adaptation to their change in the patients' lifestyle. Finally, it is recommended that the care already established by the nursing staff continue to be applied and the humanized care should continue and be reinforced among the patients and the multidisciplinary team, it should also inquire about the influence on the quality of life in relation to the treatment and diagnosis.
