Objective:
to know the praxis of nurses in the hospital context and, from this, to define a concept about Care-Educational Technologies.
Method:
qualitative, exploratory-descriptive research, developed in a university hospital in Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, with 21 nurses (non-probabilistic sampling), through non-participant observation and semi-structured interview, conducted from March to December 2015. Records were analyzed through content analysis.
Results:
the results showed that in the context of nurses’ work, it is possible to deduce care-educational possibilities, based on the person-person, person-tool and/or person-universe relationship. The concept was defined based on the intertwining of caring-training and training-caring for oneself and other people.
Final considerations:
the reflections point to the need to develop or strengthen the autonomy of those involved in the health-disease process. This is based on the empowerment of people under their lives’ conditions, in their multidimensionality, within human praxis.
