Résumé
Introduction : Dans les soins aux enfants et aux adolescent∙es, reconnaître le rôle des parents est incontournable. Cependant, les études démontrent un écart entre les perceptions des professionnel∙les, favorables à l’adoption d’une pratique optimale auprès des parents, et leur pratique réelle. Plusieurs défis semblent limiter les sources de soutien auprès des parents en contexte pédiatrique. Objectif : Cette étude vise à décrire les perceptions des professionnel·les sur les défis liés à la pratique auprès des parents en contexte pédiatrique. Méthode : Un devis qualitatif descriptif basé sur la méthode de l’incident critique, selon une perspective écosystémique, a été utilisé auprès de 15 professionnel·les. Résultats : L’analyse des données a permis d’identifier 4 catégories de défis interreliés, c’est-à-dire, les défis: 1) dans le rapport à la pratique auprès des parents; 2) personnels dans le rapport à soi; 3) relationnels dans le rapport aux parents; et, 4) contextuels dans le rapport au dispositif institutionnel. Discussion et conclusion : Les défis rencontrés par les professionnel∙les dans leur pratique auprès des parents relèvent à la fois de facteurs qui soutiennent ou entravent cette pratique. Les contraintes liées au dispositif institutionnel modulent l’offre de services, limitant la capacité des professionnel∙les à déployer une pratique optimale. Cette étude souligne la spécificité et la complexité de la pratique auprès des parents en contexte pédiatrique, appelant à une attention accrue au soutien offert aux professionnel∙les pour l’exercice optimal de leur rôle.

Abstract
Introduction: In child and adolescent health care, recognising the role of parents is essential. However, several studies demonstrate a gap between professionals’ favorable perceptions of adopting optimal practice with parents and their actual practice. Several challenges appear to limit sources of support for parents in a pediatric context. Objective: This study aims to describe professionals’ perceptions of challenges in their practice with parents in a pediatric context. Method: A qualitative descriptive design based on the critical incident method, according to an ecosystem perspective, was conducted with 15 professionals. Results: Data analysis describes 4 categories of interrelated challenges: 1) in relation to the practice with parents; 2) personal in relation to oneself; 3) relational aspects of the relationship with parents; and 4) contextual in relation to the institutional system. Discussion and Conclusion: The challenges faced by professionals in their practice with parents relate to factors that support or hinder this practice. Constraints related to the institutional system modulate the provision of services, limiting the ability of professionals to deploy optimal practice. This study highlights the specificity and complexity of practice with parents in a pediatric context, calling for increased attention to the support offered to professionals for the optimal exercise in their role.
