Implicações da visibilidade da enfermagem no exercício profissional

Nursing construction image is permeated by historical socioeconomic and cultural aspects. This theme aims to understand the perception of nurses regarding the visibility of nursing staffs daily work. This qualitative research is exploratory, with 30 nurses at a university hospital in southern Brazil. The data was collected from July to October 2012, through semi-structured interviews and submitted for a discursive textual analysis. The results show that nursing visibility is related to a professional historical trajectory, to an absence of recognition of the scientific aspect of Nursing, to erroneous placement in the media, to improper behavior towards the staff and also to work overload. Thus, the demystification of nursings image includes greater media visibility, conducting personnel marketing, appropriate behavior in front of health staff and professional demonstrations of autonomy, challenges that must be overcome by nursing.

CONSTRUÇÃO MORAL DO ESTUDANTE DE GRADUAÇÃO EM ENFERMAGEM COMO FOMENTO DA HUMANIZAÇÃO DO CUIDADO

Objective: to reflect on how the moral construction of the undergraduate nursing student can promote the humanization of care. Method: this is a theoretical reflection based on two different frameworks: Piaget and Kohlberg. Results: the following are mentioned as possible consequences of this reflection: the recognition of the moral dimension of care; the need to consider the culture of the subjects involved in care; overcoming technicality in nursing, also considering the ethical dimension of care and, finally, the provision of instruments to teachers in order to enable them to address human morality as an exercise of citizenship at all academic times. Conclusion: we believe that academic nursing education dedicated to the moral construction can help to prepare nurses who are capable of humanized care
