The aim of this study was to describe the significance of the care attributed by professionals in attending child victims of abuse. This descriptive study, using a qualitative approach, was developed with 14 professionals in the pediatric emergency unit of a hospital in Fortaleza, in the period between March and June of 2014 by means of semi-structured interviews. The results identified two categories: 'Feelings and suffering of the health professional' and 'Limitations of the professional practice in the care of abused children'. The emotions expressed included compassion towards abused children, which was a motivation for professionals. Negative feelings included rage and anger against the aggressor In conclusion, the care of child victims of violence is a challenge for health professionals from emergency services, as it involves biopsychosocial aspects that go beyond the injury itself and the hospital universe. |
