It all came down to partnering with the patient and participants described how they made an effort to respect the patients' view and accept patient as a part of the care team. Identified hindering factors for participation were lack of teamwork, patients' taking on passive roles and communication during ward rounds having conversations at the patient's bedside. Nurses wished for a change but lacked strategies on how. Nurses preferred important decisions to be made away from bedside.
