Objective:
to characterize undergraduate nursing courses according to Enade (National Student Performance Exam) in 2010 and 2013.
Method:
a quantitative documental study was performed and descriptive statistics was used for data organization and analysis.
Results:
Enade report analysis enabled the identification of a reduction in the total number of institutions providing undergraduate nursing courses that passed the evaluation process. The Southeastern, Northeastern and Southern regions of Brazil included the highest numbers of courses assessed and showed the best results in the two evaluation cycles. Additionally, the courses characterized as “without a ranking” were mainly held at private institutions.
Conclusion:
the results of these evaluation cycles are important to support investigative and intervention processes about and with undergraduate nursing courses.

Objective:
to analyze the influence of two São Paulo State experiences in the choice of psychosocial care centers as guiding service providers for the national mental health policy.
Method:
qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive study using oral history as a methodology and theoretical reference.
Results:
eight professionals involved in the deployment of the mental health policy in the cities of Santos and São Paulo between the years 1989 and 1992 were interviewed. Data were analyzed after treating the narratives and grouping the most significant content. Two central themes emerged: development of the local-regional model, and the model’s influence on the choice of the psychosocial care center.
Conclusion:
due to greater insertion of the Santos experience group in the spheres of the federal government, its influence on the choice of the substitute model was higher in ideological terms, whereas the São Paulo model had its influence restricted for political reasons.

Views0ABSTRACT
Objective:
To analyze how social representations of hospital and community care are structured in two groups of nursing students – 1st and 4th years.
Method:
Qualitative research oriented by the Theory of Social Representations. We used a questionnaire with Free Association of Words. Data were analyzed in the Software IRaMuTeQ 0.6 alpha 3.
Results:
We applied the method of Descending Hierarchical Classification and obtained four classes. Class 4 has the largest social representation (30.41%) within the corpus. The two organizational axes are nurse and disease/patient in the central core. On the periphery are the care and help related to the nurse and the treatment and prevention associated with the disease.
Conclusion:
Social representations focus on disease/patient and on the role of nurses in the treatment, prevention, and care. Health promotion and the social determinants of health are absent from the social representations of students.

Objetivos:
analisar os fatores associados ao bem-estar materno em situação de parto de puérperas em Minas Gerais.
Métodos:
estudo transversal, aninhado a uma coorte, realizado com puérperas em um município mineiro. Foi adotada a escala Bem-Estar Materno em Situação de Parto 2. Estimaram-se as prevalências do bem-estar materno em situação de parto. A magnitude da associação entre mal-estar materno e práticas assistenciais foi estimada pela Razão de Prevalência (RP), utilizando-se a regressão de Poisson.
Resultados:
participaram 183 puérperas com idade entre 15 e 46 anos, sendo que 26,2%, 27,9% e 45,9% relataram, respectivamente, ótimo, adequado e mal-estar na assistência ao parto. O mal-estar materno foi mais prevalente entre puérperas que passaram por parto cesárea (RP = 1,60) e que não receberam informações sobre amamentação (RP = 1,59).
Conclusões:
observou-se elevada prevalência de mal-estar no parto, associada à realização de cesáreas e à falta de informações sobre amamentação.

Objectives:
to analyze the relationship between the nursing practice environment and hospital sociotechnical complexity as perceived by nurses.
Methods:
a sequential explanatory mixed-methods study was conducted in a hospital in southern Brazil. The Brazilian version of the Practice Environment Scale-Nursing Work Index and the Complexity Characterization Questionnaire were administered to 132 nurses. Subsequently, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 18 participants, and the data were subjected to thematic analysis. Data integration was achieved through a connection approach.
Results:
the nursing practice environment was found to be favorable, except in the subscale concerning Staffing and Resource Adequacy, where complexity was present in the activities. The three emerging categories explained human and technical aspects related to complexity in the practice environment, quality of care, and patient safety. Unexpected variability was inversely correlated with the practice environment.
Conclusions:
the study results indicate a relationship between these constructs, with implications for the quality and the safety of care.

Objectives:
to comprehend the perception of undergraduate nursing students about learning to care for the child and family through clinical simulation.
Methods:
this is a qualitative research conducted with ten nursing students through semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed through content analysis.
Results:
data were organized into two categories: “learning a new way to learn,” in which students describe their experiences during the simulation, and “learning a new way to care,” in which they reflect on learning through simulation.
Final considerations:
we believe that clinical simulation practice in teaching should be encouraged because of the benefits it can offer to the students, faculty, patients and their families. However, we recommend further studies to validate scenarios of child and family healthcare.

Objectives:
to achieve the degree of saturation in study that applied the grounded theory.
Methods:
qualitative research, carried out in four Family Health Units, between June 2018 and May 2019. The data from the interviews with 30 health professionals and non-participant observation were coded in the stages: open, axial and integration.
Results:
the degree of saturation was achieved by two conceptual models – theoretical saturation and inductive thematic. Theoretical saturation was considered: the development of conceptual codes and observation, in the collection and analysis of data, when they generated new categories/subcategories or only indicated increasing instances. For thematic inductive saturation, the use of new codes based on each interview stood out.
Final Considerations:
the visual layout for the number of codes, the theoretical scope of the concepts and the delimitation of the sample groups guided the identification of the degree of saturation for the development of the conceptual body that supported the substantive theory.

Results:
three categories emerged: the prescribed reality; material resources and their impact on care; and human resources related to the reality.
Final considerations:
challenges to safe professional practice are caused by inadequate physical structure, insufficient physical and human resources, but mainly invade the transition from the prescriptive reality scope.
