Abstrakt     Uvod: V tujini v šolskem prostoru deluje šolska medicinska sestra, ki v najširšem pomenu skrbi za zdravje šolarjev. Namen raziskave je bil zbrati mnenja in izkušnje učiteljev in zdravstvenih delavcev o pomenu in potrebah po delovanju poklicnega profila šolska medicinska sestra v osnovnih šolah. Metode: Uporabljen je bil kvalitativni raziskovalni pristop. Podatki so bili zbrani s polstrukturiranimi intervjuji (štiri fokusne skupine in dva individualna intervjuja). Besedila intervjujev so bila analizirana z metodo odprtega kodiranja. Rezultati: Izluščenih je pet glavnih kategorij: zdravstvene težave učencev v šoli, ukrepanje ob zdravstvenih težavah v času bivanja na šoli, usposobljenost učiteljev za prepoznavanje in ukrepanje ob zdravstvenih težavah učencev, promocija zdravja v šoli ter potreba po delovanju zdravstvenega kadra v šolskem prostoru. Diskusija in zaključek: Učitelji se v šolah srečujejo z zdravstvenimi težavami učencev, zato si želijo delovanja medicinske sestre na šoli. Zdravstveni delavci se zavedajo pomena sprememb, vendar ob trenutni organizaciji ne vidijo veliko možnosti vstopa diplomirane medicinske sestre v šolski prostor, kar sicer ocenjujejo kot smiselno. Potrebne bi bile nadaljnje raziskave za umestitev proučevanega koncepta dela v prihodnosti.Introduction: In this article we discuss the rationale and possibilities to provide school health services in Slovenian schools as is the common practice in many schools abroad. School nursing ensures preventive services, early identification of problems, interventions, and referrals and advances the general well being of students during the school day. The aim of the study was to gather information about the teachers' and healthcare professionals' experiences and views about school nursing in Slovenia. Methods: A qualitative research, method was employed in the study. Semi-structured interviews were conducted (four focus groups and two individual interviews). The interviews were analyzed with the open coding method. Results: The analysis yielded five main categories: children's health problems at school, interventions conducted while children are at school, teachers' ability to recognize and act upon children's health issues, health promotion at school, and the need for health care professionals at schools. Discussion and conclusion: The teachers can not and should not assume the responsibility to intervene with diverse students' actual and potential health problems and therefore welcome the presence of a school nurse during the school day. The healthcare professionals participating in the study recognize and appreciate the significance of school nursing. They are, however, convinced that restructuring of health care organization in Slovenia and ensuing introduction of school nursing in the near future is hardly expected. Further research is needed to substantiate the need of school nursing within the health care system of Slovenia.
