DELGADO BRAVO, Adriana Isabel  e  NARANJO TORO, Miguel Edmundo. The act of nursing care as a foundation of professional and research work. av.enferm. [online]. 2015, vol.33, n.3, pp.412-419. ISSN 0121-4500.  https://doi.org/10.15446/av.enferm.v33n3.42015.

The aim of this reflection article was to analize discussion topics of the praxis of work in different fields in which health professional can perform, reflecting upon care act and involving awareness, knowledge, reasoning, ethics, and respect for the culture of the individual within a community. The analysis was obtained by combining the practice, theory, and experience, as well as the literature search with the conceptual approach to health care. For this purpose, several authors were consulted, scanning bibliographic databases as scielo, and pubmed, as far as knowledge and experience, starting from care act. In conclusion, it can be asserted that human health resources are committed to the care act, wherein not only the pain caused by a physiological disorder is relieved, but also the pain caused by social disorder, indifference, loneliness, and spiritual silence, evidence of the state of the consumer society and superficiality. Hence it is important, as trainers of human resources in health, to emphasize the "care" with ethical, human sense, through adequate communication with the patient and family, developing attitudes and practices during training according to the institutional mission and vision.
