As situações vivenciadas durante o trabalho podem ser consideradas traumáticas e, consequentemente, impactam a saúde física e mental dos acidentados. Este trabalho teve por objetivo apreender aspectos das vivências das famílias, na perspectiva dos acidentados. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, quantiqualitativo. Os dados foram coletados de março a agosto de 2013, em dois momentos. Foram analisadas 212 comunicações de acidente de trabalho registradas no Hospital Universitário de Maringá, em 2012. Posteriormente, foi aplicado um instrumento semiestruturado com 16 acidentados, afastados do emprego por 30 dias ou mais. Identificaram-se as dificuldades vivenciadas pelo grupo familiar na perspectiva do acidentado; as mudanças decorrentes do acidente; os sentimentos revelados diante do acidente de trabalho; e a manifestação da solidariedade humana. Conclui-se a importância do apoio familiar diante das alterações sofridas, em consequência desses acidentes, sendo necessária a reorganização diária relacionada às dificuldades, principalmente, financeiras.
ABSTRACT
Situations experienced at work may be traumatic and consequently affect the physical and mental health of those injured. This quantitative and qualitative descriptive study aimed to apprehend aspects of the families’ experiences in the victims’ views. Data were collected from March to August 2013 in two stages: first, 212 Workplace Accident Notifications filed at Maringá University Hospital in 2012 were examined; later, a semi-structured questionnaire was applied to 16 victims absent from work for 30 days or more. The study identified, from the victims’ standpoint, the difficulties experienced by the family group; the changes arising from the accident; the feelings revealed with regard to the accident; and the expressions of human solidarity. It was concluded that family support is important, given the changes that result from the accident, requiring day-to-day reorganization to address the difficulties, which are primarily financial.
