To safeguard children effectively, it is known that practitioners build relationships with families in sometimes challenging situations, which involve the management of emotions. However, irrespective of this current knowledge; health practitioners who work in this area suggest that their child safeguarding role is not recognised, respected or valued in professional and societal settings. The purpose of this study was to report on a qualitative study which set out to explore the relationship between the known relational\u2010based emotions work of practitioners' and the reported lack of visibility.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Hermeneutic phenomenology underpinned the study. Semistructured interviews were employed for data collection. Ten participants actively working with preschool children and families in healthcare organisations were recruited.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The emotional\u2010, relationship\u2010 and communicative\u2010based work crucial to effectively safeguard children may influence the visibility of the role. Poor role visibility influences the morale of practitioners and the support they receive.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>In conclusion this study proposes that when there is poor role recognition; there is ineffective clinical support. This reduces professional well\u2010being, which in turn will impact practitioner abilities to safeguard children.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Relevance to clinical practice<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study highlights that to sustain safe and effective health and social care practice, organisational leads require an understanding of the impact emotional\u2010 and relational\u2010based work can have on practitioners and provide supportive frameworks that will effectively promote professional well\u2010being.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jocn.13486","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,8,3]],"date-time":"2016-08-03T15:22:54Z","timestamp":1470237774000},"page":"557-567","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["A hermeneutic phenomenological study exploring the experience health practitioners have when working with families to safeguard children and the invisibility of the emotions work involved"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Jillian","family":"Taylor","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of the West of Scotland Hamilton Lanarkshire UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pam","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Health in Social Science University of Edinburgh Edinburgh UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julie","family":"Taylor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing College of Medical &amp; Dental Sciences University of Birmingham Edgbaston Birmingham UK"},{"name":"Birmingham Children's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Birmingham UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,11,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14623943.2014.883312"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","volume-title":"Reflexive Methodology","author":"Alvesson M","year":"2009"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","first-page":"21","article-title":"Safeguarding and protecting children: where is health visiting now?","volume":"84","author":"Appleton JV","year":"2011","journal-title":"Community Practitioner"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijnurstu.2006.08.014"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/bjsw\/bcq018"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000446-198412000-00027"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","volume-title":"The Primacy of Caring","author":"Benner P","year":"1989"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","volume-title":"Learning from Experience","author":"Bion W","year":"1962"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_10_1","unstructured":"M Brandon S Bailey P Belderson 2010 Department of Education London"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1191\/1478088706qp063oa"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_12_1","volume-title":"Alexander's Nursing Practice","author":"Brooker C","year":"2011"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_13_1","first-page":"119","article-title":"Life\u2010worlds in phenomenology","volume":"24","author":"Connelly LM","year":"2015","journal-title":"MedSurg Nursing"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_14_1","volume-title":"The Principles of Health Visiting: Opening the Door to Public Health Practice in the 21st Century","author":"Cowley S","year":"2006"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_15_1","volume-title":"The Practice of Nursing Research: Appraisal, Synthesis and Generation of Evidence","author":"Burns N","year":"2009"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/shm\/1.1.39"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_17_1","volume-title":"Equality Analysis: Health Visiting","author":"Department of Health","year":"2010"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_18_1","volume-title":"National Health Visiting Plan: Progress to date and implementation 2013 onwards.
