RESUMEN

PURPOSE: This study explores whether the full potential of physiotherapy is reaching cancer patients and their caregivers at all stages of the oncological process, aiming to identify gaps and opportunities for improving care. METHODS: The World Cafe co-design methodology facilitated discussions among cancer patients and caregivers. This dynamic, inclusive, and engaging approach fostered diverse perspectives and deeper insights through collaborative and flexible discussions. Sessions were recorded, transcribed, and qualitatively analyzed. RESULTS: Sixteen participants were involved (eight cancer survivors and eight caregivers). The mean age of cancer survivors was 63.8 years, while the average age of caregivers was 59.3 years. Breast cancer was the most prevalent diagnosis among patients, and most caregivers had lost their family members to cancer. Analysis revealed two primary themes: "feeling cared for" and "the role of physiotherapy in the oncological process." Key findings highlight the need for more humanized healthcare, with professionals providing support through effective communication and empathy. Significant gaps were detected in both systematic referrals to physiotherapists and their integration into care teams. Testimonies highlighted the lack of knowledge about the full potential of physiotherapy in oncology, hindering access. There was also a demand for recognizing specialized oncological physiotherapists. CONCLUSIONS: These findings highlight significant gaps in physiotherapy care for cancer survivors and caregivers, including unmet needs due to the lack of information, resources, and effective communication. Future efforts should focus on increasing the visibility of physiotherapy, integrating specialized physiotherapists into oncology teams, and enhancing the emotional education of healthcare professionals to provide more humanized care.

RESUMEN

Levantar e analisar a perspectiva de mulheres acerca da assistência recebida durante o parto. Método: estudo epidemiológico, observacional, de abordagem quantitativa e transversal. Os dados coletados foram compilados em tabelas e gráficos, analisados comparativamente entre si e com dados levantados na literatura científica. Resultados: as 80 participantes, com idade média de 26,6 anos, foram assistidas, integralmente, por enfermeiras obstetras. Houve predomínio das pardas (55,0%), solteiras (53,7%) e com renda familiar inferior a salários-mínimos (77,5%). Constatou-se alto nível de satisfação relacionado à assistência recebida, entretanto, o toque vaginal e a falta liberdade de se posicionar ao dar à luz foram as queixas mais frequentes, e que gerou certo grau de insatisfação. Conclusão: a amostra analisada demonstrou satisfação com os cuidados recebidos, porém os dois indicadores, com menor grau de satisfação, precisam ser repensados na prática obstétrica de modo a promover o bem-estar e a segurança da mulher.(AU)

To survey and analyze women's perspectives on the care they received during childbirth. Method: an epidemiological, observational, quantitative, cross-sectional study. The data collected was compiled into tables and graphs and analyzed in comparison with each other and with data found in scientific literature. Results: the 80 participants, with an average age of 26.6 years, were attended entirely by obstetric nurses. There was a predominance of brown women (55.0%), single women (53.7%) and women with a family income of less than one minimum wage (77.5%). There was a high level of satisfaction with the care received; however, vaginal touch and the lack of freedom to position oneself when giving birth were the most frequent complaints, which generated a certain degree of dissatisfaction. Conclusion: The sample analyzed showed satisfaction with the care received, but the two indicators with the lowest level of satisfaction need to be rethought in obstetric practice in order to promote women's well-being and safety.(AU)

RESUMEN

Information obtained from children themselves regarding the characteristics of the ideal hospital that ensure well-being during a hospital stay is scarce. Here, we report the opinions, perceptions, and expectations of 700 children and adolescents about their experiences, assessed through a mixed-method research approach with age-appropriate questionnaires, three open-ended questions, and an analysis of optional pictorial and textual narratives. Most children indicated that, while they acknowledged the expertise of hospital staff, they also noted several shortcomings, e.g., insufficiently understandable medical information as well as emotional and cognitive support. The continuity of schooling and the right to suffer as little as possible were also critical issues. Adolescents valued in particular the quality of care and services provided, the hospital's adherence to equality and non-discrimination rights, and protection systems but negatively perceived several aspects related to play and participation. Significant differences in the co-occurrences of the most frequently used text terms with the keywords "hospital" and "child/adolescent" between age groups highlight variations in the way patients perceive and articulate their experiences within the hospital setting depending on the cognitive processes linked to age. In drawings, prevailing attention was placed on the physical context of the hospital room, with figures expressing mostly negative emotions. Specifically, in this regard, the main emotion in children was sadness, and, in adolescents, it was fear. Overall, these insights are pivotal in the context of our research objectives as they shed light on the nuanced preferences, needs, and perspectives of children and adolescents during their hospital stays. Recognizing the identified shortcomings, we propose recommendations emphasizing the improvement of medical communication clarity, enhancement of emotional and cognitive support, and the improvement of programs to avoid instructional gaps during hospital stays. Addressing these specific needs is critical for a more comprehensive approach to pediatric healthcare provision.

RESUMEN

Objetivo:Analizar la percepción de los pacientes sobre la humanización de los cuidados de enfermería en una unidad de hemodiálisis.Material y Método: Estudio descriptivo transversal, realizado en 2023 en la unidad de hemodiálisis del Hospital Universitario de Jaén. Se utilizó el cuestionario PCHE 3ªversión (32 ítems, escala Likert 1-4), obteniéndose una puntuación sobre percepción global del cuidado humanizado y 3 puntuaciones correspondientes a las dimensiones: “Cualidades del hacer de enfermería”, “Apertura a la comunicación para proporcionar educación para la salud a la persona” y “Priorizar el sujeto de cuidado”. También se recogieron las variables sexo, edad y tiempo en hemodiálisis. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo, y se comparó la puntuación global y de las 3 dimensiones con la variable sexo (U-Mann-Whitney) y con las otras variables (Rho-Spearman). Resultados: Se analizaron 38 cuestionarios, 57,9% hombres, edad media: 65,2±15,28años, mediana tiempo en hemodiálisis: 42 (P25:8-P75:96) meses. Alpha de Cronbach del cuestionario: 0,919. Un 73,7% calificó como “siempre” la percepción global del cuidado humanizado, y un 5,3% “nunca”. Analizando las respuestas “siempre” y “nunca” en cada dimensión, encontramos: “Comunicación” (63,2% vs 5,3%), “Priorizar al paciente” (63,2% vs 5,3%) y “Cualidades del hacer” (84,2% vs 5,3%). Los pacientes con >1 año en hemodiálisis presentaron peor puntuación total PCHE (p=0,03), también encontramos correlación entre “tiempo en diálisis” y la dimensión “Cualidades del hacer” (Rho-Spearman:-0,346; p=0,039).Conclusiones: La percepción por parte de los pacientes en hemodiálisis sobre el cuidado humanizado de enfermería ha sido buena, identificándose áreas de mejora en la comunicación y priorización del paciente (AU)

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, in its opinion of the Committee on Midwifery Practice, points out that planned home birth is a woman's and family's right to experience, but also to choose and be informed about, their baby's place of birth. The aim of this study was to understand obstetric nurses' perceptions of planned home childbirth care within the framework of the Brazilian obstetric model. METHOD: A qualitative study, with Snowball Sampling recruitment, totaling 20 obstetric nurses through semi-structured interviews between September 2022 and January 2023, remotely, using the Google Meet application and the recording feature. After the data had been collected, the material was transcribed in full and subjected to content analysis in the thematic modality with the support of ATLAS.ti 8.0 software. RESULTS: Obstetric care at home emerged as a counterpoint to hospital care and the biomedical model, providing care at home based on scientific evidence and humanization, bringing qualified information as a facilitator of access and financial costs as an obstacle to effective home birth. CONCLUSION: Understanding obstetric nurses' perceptions of planned home birth care in the context of the Brazilian obstetric model shows the need for progress as a public policy and for strategies to ensure quality and regulation.

RESUMEN

Introducción. Todo ser humano necesita gozar de bienestar y ser reconocido como un sujeto activo en el desarrollo de la sociedad, por lo que la administración pública debe garantizar, respetar y proteger el derecho a la salud, el cual ha sido transgredido en las últimas décadas, vulnerando a la población a nivel mundial. Objetivo. Fundamentar teórica, metodológica y epistemológicamente la propuesta de un currículo, que desarrolle el pensamiento bioético en el profesional de la Fisioterapia. Métodos. Se sustenta en el paradigma sociocrítico y en la investigación acción educativa, desde la visión de Miguel Martínez-Miguélez, que busca reconceptualizar la indagación en el aula en términos participativos, relacionándolo con las actividades propias del quehacer educativo, como es la construcción y desarrollo del currículo. Resultados. Con el proceso investigativo se construyó ­en colectivo­ la definición del concepto de pensamiento bioético y se diseñó un currículo prácti-senti-pensante para los estudiantes de Fisioterapia, a partir de la pedagogía sentipensante y del paradigma del cerebro triádico (o triúnico) que interrelaciona las acciones, los sentimientos y los conocimientos en la formación humana de los futuros fisioterapeutas. Conclusiones. El currículo práctisentipensante trasciende a una estructura cognitiva trinitaria, resaltando la importancia de entrelazar las disciplinas por la supervivencia del ser humano y el equilibrio del planeta, destacando lo humanístico y la bioética, a través de un currículo que evoca a la reflexión de la comunidad educativa con el fin de articular lo desunido.

Background. Every human being needs to enjoy well-being and be recognized as an active subject in the development of society, so public administration must guarantee, respect and protect the right to health, which has been transgressed in recent decades, violating the population worldwide. Objective. To theoretically, methodologically and epistemologically base the proposal of a curriculum that develops bioethical thinking in the Physiotherapy professional. Methods. It is based on the socio-critical paradigm and educational action research, from the vision of Miguel Martínez-Miguélez, who seeks to reconceptualize inquiry in the classroom in participatory terms, relating it to the activities of educational work, such as construction and development of the curriculum. Results. With the research process, the definition of the concept of bioethical thinking was built ­collectively­ and a practical-senti-thinking curriculum was designed for Physiotherapy students, based on senti-thinking pedagogy and the paradigm of the triadic (or triune) brain that interrelates actions, feelings and knowledge in the human training of future physiotherapists. Conclusion. The practical thinking curriculum transcends a trinitarian cognitive structure, highlighting the importance of interweaving the disciplines for the survival of the human being and the balance of the planet, highlighting the humanistic and bioethics, through a curriculum that evokes the reflection of educational community to articulate the disunited.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCCIÓN: Las Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI) han sido y siguen siendo un territorio hostil donde se proporcionan cuidados de Enfermería. Debido a los avances científico-tecnológicos se ha impuesto una atención alejada de aspectos humanos y la exclusión de las familias en los cuidados, dejando a un lado la perspectiva holística de los mismos. El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar los factores estresantes que sufren los pacientes y sus familiares en una UCI y cómo poder solventarlos. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Se llevó a cabo una revisión sistemática, en las bases de datos WOS, SCOPUS y Pubmed. RESULTADOS: Los diferentes estudios obtienen resultados similares. La mayoría de ellos establecen como principal factor estresante al dolor, sobre el cual se puede trabajar de diferentes maneras para paliarlo. El resto de los factores se repiten en los artículos difiriendo en el orden de prioridad de estos estresores; unos priorizan tener tubos en la nariz y en la boca, otros no poder comunicarse con su entorno, tener sed, etc. Todos sugieren la importancia de la implantación de prácticas humanizadas en el cuidado del paciente crítico y sus familias. CONCLUSIÓN: La UCI, a pesar de ser un lugar idóneo para la recuperación de pacientes críticos e inestables, también es considerada un lugar hostil, amenazante y desagradable en la cual están presentes numerosos factores estresantes. La identificación de los factores estresantes para la implementación de proyectos humanizados en UCI, permite aplicar cuidados desde una perspectiva holística, mejorando la evolución de los pacientes. (AU)

INTRODUCTION: The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) have been and continue to be a hostile territory where nursing care is provided. Due to scientific-technological progress, care has been imposed away from human aspects and the exclusion of families in care, leaving aside their holistic perspective. The goal of this work is to identify the stressfull factors suffered by patients and their relatives in an ICU and how to solve them. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A Systematic review was carried out in the WOS, SCOPUS and PubMed databases. RESULTS: The different studies obtain similar results. Most of them established pain as the main stressor, which can be worked on in different ways to relieve it. The rest of the factors are repeated in the articles differing in the order of priority. Some prioritize having tubes in their nose and mouth; others not being able to communicate with their environment, being thirsty, etc. All suggest the importance of the implantation of humanized practices in the care of critical patients and their families. CONCLUSION: The ICU, despite being and ideal place for the recovery of critical and unstable patients, is also considered a hostile, threating and unpleasant place in which numerous stressors are present. The identification of stressors for the implantation of humanized projects in ICU allows to apply care from a holistic perspective, improving the evaluation of patients. (AU)

RESUMEN

esta pesquisa traz uma abordagem qualitativa exploratória, com objetivo de identificar a percepção dos estudantes da área da saúde sobre a violência obstétrica e sua relação com uma perspectiva bioética pautada nos princípios previstos na Declaração Universal sobre Bioética e Direitos Humanos. Para esse fim, foi aplicado questionário eletrônico a 102 estudantes da área da saúde, cujo perfil majoritário era do sexo feminino, de até 25 anos, residentes no Distrito Federal, que não têm filhos. A partir das respostas, pode-se perceber que o conhecimento sobre violência obstétrica não se deu necessariamente no contexto formal acadêmico, tendo ocorrido a partir de sítios da internet e das mídias tradicionais. Com relação ao conhecimento em Bioética, embora a maioria dos participantes tenha afirmado possuir, percebeu-se que ele era limitado quanto ao teor da Declaração Universal sobre Bioética e Direitos Humanos e sua aplicação no caso concreto. Conclui-se que há uma lacuna significativa na formação ética de profissionais de saúde e que a comunidade acadêmica deve estimular o desenvolvimento do pensamento crítico de seus alunos, ao invés de coibi-lo.

the research has an exploratory qualitative approach to identify health students' perception of obstetric violence and its relationship with a bioethical perspective based on the postulates of the Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights. For this purpose, an electronic questionnaire was applied to 102 health students, the majority female, up to 25 years of age, and inhabitants of the Federal District, Brazil, without children. From the answers, it is possible to perceive that knowledge about obstetric violence does not necessarily occur in the formal academic context, having considerable importance in the debate among students and other sources of information, such as the internet and media. Concerning knowledge of Bioethics, although most of the participants claimed to have, it is perceived that it was limited in terms of the meaning of the Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights and its application in the specific case. It is concluded that there is a significant gap in the ethical training of health professionals and that the academic community should stimulate the development of critical thinking in their students instead of inhibiting it.

la investigación trae un enfoque cualitativo exploratorio, con el propósito de identificar la percepción de los estudiantes del área de salud acerca de la violencia obstétrica y su relación con una perspectiva bioética pautada en los postulados previstos en la Declaración Universal sobre Bioética y Derechos Humanos. Para tal, se aplicó cuestionario electrónico a 102 estudiantes del área de la salud, cuyo perfil mayoritario era del sexo femenino, de hasta 25 años, habitantes del Distrito Federal, Brasil, sin hijos. A partir de las respuestas, se logra percibir que el conocimiento acerca de la violencia obstétrica no necesariamente ocurre en el contexto formal académico, teniendo considerable importancia el debate entre alumnos y otras fuentes de información, como internet y media. En relación con el conocimiento en Bioética, aunque la mayoría de los participantes ha afirmado tener, se percibe que era limitado en cuanto al sentido de la Declaración Universal sobre Bioética y Derechos Humanos y su aplicación en el caso concreto. Se concluye que hay un vacío significativo en la formación ética de profesionales de salud y que la comunidad académica debe estimular el desarrollo del pensamiento crítico de sus estudiantes en lugar de cohibirlo.

Abstract This essay reflects on the relationship between narrative medicine, social media, and humanization based on the use of social media by one of the authors to share experiences in the context of primary health care. Questions about prevailing health care models, listening, and narrative as dispositives of the humanization of care and the emergence of social media as drivers of humanized health practices arose as important points that need to be analyzed in the light of current literature. In the conclusion we present some considerations relating to the use of narrative medicine as a tool for promoting humanizing practices.(AU)

RESUMEN

Humanization of care is becoming an increasingly important aspect in providing high-quality health services and the arts are more and more implemented to support and foster humanization and person-centered care efforts. Musical experiences are one of the most frequently encountered art forms in medical settings. Music therapy as a healthcare profession has a decades-long tradition in hospitals, both in inpatient and outpatient areas. However, while studies regarding the effectiveness of music therapy are on the forefront of clinical research, little attention has been paid to the profession's inherent opportunities to assist the hospitals' strategies in terms of humanization of care. Yet, the musical experiences in music therapy are especially versatile in supporting healthcare users from a holistic perspective, contributing to a more compassionate, personalized, and humanized environment. In this article, the basic pillars of humanized and person-centered care will be outlined, followed by examples of seven intersections in which the music therapy service of the University Hospital Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá aligns with its Humanized and Compassionate Care Model. The aim of this article is to stimulate the discussion on music therapy not only as a profession that provides safe and effective treatment, but also as a therapeutic art experience that can add value for hospitals on their path toward a more humanized care culture.

RESUMEN

La humanización en la prestación de servicios de salud es un imperativo ético, incluso para las Unidades de Cuidado Intensivo (UCI), donde brindar atención integral centrada en pacientes y familiares, y no en lo tecnológico, es un reto. Se presenta un estudio cualitativo que utilizó entrevistas semiestructuradas en línea, observación participante y diario de campo. Participaron 10 trabajadores de UCI privadas y 10 en UCI públicas: 6 fisioterapeutas, 5 médicos, 4 sanitarios de enfermería y 5 enfermeras. Para analizar la información se realizó codificación, categorización y hermenéutica de ideas. Se descubrieron dos posturas frente a la humanización: como obligación (deontología) o como acto respeto (profesionalismo). Se comprende y practica la humanización como: 1) buen trato y cordialidad al realizar intervenciones; 2) ponerse en el lugar del paciente reconociendo que tiene familia; 3) cuidados que garantizan confort al paciente mediante acciones sobre el cuerpo;4) cumplir con objetivos terapéuticos evitando sufrimiento o daño; 5) reconocer la dignidad del paciente; 6) atención a la vulnerabilidad del paciente, especialmente oncológico. Existen barreras para la humanización: la pandemia, los insumos de la UCI, las normas institucionales rígidas, entre otras. En conclusión, los significados otorgados a la humanización en cuidado crítico están mediadas por prácticas con énfasis en aspectos biológicos e ideas relacionadas con el respeto por la dignidad humana (intimidad), el buen trato y evitar sufrimiento al paciente. La pandemia generó crisis en la atención humanizada expresada, entre otras, en ausencia de apoyo psicosocial al personal que trabaja en UCI.(AU)

La humanització en la prestació de serveis de salut és un imperatiu ètic, fins i tot per a les Unitats de Cura Intensiva (UCI), on brindar atenció integral centrada en pacients i familiars, i no en l’aspecte tecnològic, és un repte. Es presenta un estudi qualitatiu que va utilitzar entrevistes semi-estructurades en línia, observació participant i diari de camp. Van participar 10 treballadors d'UCI privades i 10 en UCI públiques: 6 fisioterapeutes, 5 metges, 4 sanitaris d'infermeria i 5 infermeres. Per a analitzar la informació es va realitzar codificació, categorització i hermenèutica d'idees. Es van descobrir dues postures enfront de la humanització: com a obligació (deontologia)o com a acte respecto (professionalisme). Es comprèn i practica la humanització com: 1) bon tracte i cordialitat en realitzar intervencions; 2) posar-se en el lloc del pacient reconeixent que té família; 3) cures que garanteixen confort al pacient mitjançant accions sobre el cos; 4) complir amb objectius terapèutics evitant sofriment o mal; 5) reconèixer la dignitat del pacient; 6) atenció a la vulnerabilitat del pacient, especialment oncològic. Existeixen barreres per a la humanització: la pandèmia, els inputs de l'UCI, les normes institucionals rígides, entre altres. En conclusió, els significats atorgats a la humanització en cura crítica estan mediades per pràctiques amb èmfasis en aspectes biològics i idees relacionades amb el respecte per la dignitat humana (intimitat), el bon tracte i evitar sofriment al pacient. La pandèmia va generar crisi en l'atenció humanitzada expressada, entre altres, en absència de suport psicosocial al personal que treballa en UCI.(AU)

Humanization in the provision of health services is an ethical imperative; even for Intensive Care Units (ICU), where achieving comprehensive care focused on patients and families and not on technology is a challenge. A qualitative study is presented that used semi-structured online interviews, participant observation, and field diary. 10 private ICU workers and 10 public ICU workers participated: 6 physiotherapists, 5 doctors, 4 nursing assistants and 5 nurses. To analyse the information, ideas were codified, categorized and hermeneutics performed. Two positions were found regarding humanization, as an obligation (deontology) or as an act of respect (professionalism). Humanization is understood and practiced as: 1) good treatment and cordiality when carrying out interventions; 2) put yourself in the patient's shoes, recognizing that you have a family; 3) care that guarantees comfort to the patient through actions on the body; 4) meet therapeutic objectives avoiding suffering or harm; 5) recognize the dignity of the patient; 6) attention to the vulnerability of the patient, especially cancer. There are barriers to humanization: the pandemic, ICU supplies, rigid institutional regulations, and others. In conclusions the meanings given to humanization in critical care are mediated by practices with an emphasis on biological aspects and ideas related to respect for human dignity (privacy), good treatment and avoiding suffering to the patient. The pandemic generated a crisis for humanized care, expressed, among others, in the absence of psychosocial support for personnel working in the ICU.(AU)

RESUMEN

During the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals around the world were forced to reorganize their processes in an attempt to contain the spread of the virus while still providing adequate care to patients. In the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) setting, changes in family visitation protocols and restrictions on parent chaperones during hospitalization, as well as other changes, interfered with care. Based on a narrative review of the literature, supported by the authors' observations in practice, we aimed to describe the impact of the pandemic on patient and family-centered care (PFCC) in the PICU environment, especially regarding the presence of family members, family support, and communication with patients and their families, as well as the effects of changes in these practices on the mental health of those involved. In this context, several strategies were used to sustain PFCC, and, despite many challenges, attempts were made to achieve the bare-minimum goals of humanized care for patients, families, and providers alike.

RESUMEN

Objetivo: evaluar los comportamientos del cuidado humano brindado por profesionales de Enfermería desde la perspectiva de personas adultas atendidas en un hospital de especialidades en México. Método: estudio descriptivo transversal realizado entre septiembre y diciembre de 2020. Se efectuó muestreo por conveniencia en los servicios de cirugía, traumatología y medicina interna. Se midieron variables sociodemográficas, clínicas y la escala Caring Behaviors Assessment en su versión validada al español. Esta incluye 63 comportamientos de cuidado humano brindado por los enfermeros medidos con escala Likert (de 1 nunca a 5 siempre). Se llevó a cabo estadística descriptiva y bivariante. Resultados: participaron 103 personas con una media de edad de 45,3 años. El 50,5% era hombre y el 72,8% tenía escolarización secundaria o menor. Evaluaron que las enfermeras mostraban comportamientos de cuidado humano casi siempre o siempre (X= 4,28; DE 0,46) en la escala global. La subescala de Asistencia a las Necesidades Humanas obtuvo el mayor promedio (X= 4,73; DE= 0,46) mientras que la de Enseñanza/Aprendizaje obtuvo el más bajo (X= 3,54; DE= 1,13). Trato respetuoso, individualizado y manejo de equipos fueron los comportamientos de cuidado mejor evaluados. Las visitas en los traslados, el hablar sobre la vida fuera del hospital, la planificación de metas de salud, el tacto para el consuelo y la consideración de necesidades espirituales, los peor evaluados. Conclusiones: los comportamientos de cuidado mejor evaluados fueron los relacionados con las habilidades instrumentales de los enfermeros y el respeto al paciente. El contacto físico, la conversación con el paciente y la consideración de las necesidades espirituales fueron algunos de los comportamientos pendientes de desarrollar.(AU)

Objective: to evaluate the caring behaviour provided by Nursing professionals, from the perspective of adult persons managed at a Tertiary Care Hospital in Mexico. Method: a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted between September and December 2020. There was convenience sampling at the Surgery, Orthopaedic Surgery and Internal Medicine Departments. Sociodemographic and clinical variables were measured. The Caring Behaviours Assessment scale was used in its version validated in Spanish, which includes 62 caring behaviours provided by nurses and measured with the Likert scale (from 1: never to 5: always). Descriptive and bivariate statistic was applied. Results: the study included 103 persons with 45.3 years as mean age; 50,5% were male and 72.8% had secondary or lower schooling. The evaluation confirmed that nurses showed caring behaviours almost always or always (X= 4.28; SD 0.46) in the overall scale. The Assistance to Human Needs subscale obtained the highest average (X= 4.73; SD= 0.46) while Teaching/Learning obtained the lowest (X= 3.54; SD= 1.13). Respectful and individualized treatment, and equipment operation were the best scored caring behaviours, while the ones with worse scores were visits during transfers, discussing life outside hospital, planning health goals, tact for comforting, and the consideration of spiritual needs. Conclusions: the caring behaviours better scored were those associated with the instrumental skills of nurses and respect to patients. Physical contact, conversation with the patient, and consideration of spiritual needs were some of the behaviours still pending development.(AU)
