A arte da enfermagem na visão do discente: um encontro com Scheler

Abstract

Objective: to understand the useful value of the speech of the student andto discuss it based on some assumptions of Max Scheler. Method: this is a qualitative study, descriptive-exploratory type, with a phenomenologicalapproach. The sample was for convenience, with the participationof ten students enrolled in the 5thgrade of the course. Data wereobtained through individual and unstructured interviews; the material was organized and analyzed by the technique of Diltheynian hermeneutics that allowed revealing the meaning of the speeches. Result: the useful value was evident in the pedagogical-assistance praxis from the use of the art of Nursing. Two categories emerged in the discourses for analysis: useful value and its expression by the art of Nursing; the useful value and it'sfavoring for the awakening of sympathy. Conclusion: it was possible to understand the useful value in the discourse of the student, for him to be 'beside the patient', 'to help', 'to listen', 'to sit next to', as actions that give nursing care its correctness and must be associated with the use of the technique. The student re-hierarchized his value scale in front of the profession and recognized the sympathy as founder for nursing care.
