Nowadays, nursing has been able to recognize the importance of ethical requirements linked to the act of caring, recognizing the different conflicts of value that nursing professionals must face daily. Nevertheless, the nursing profession has not yet been able to identify a single bioethical model that encompasses all the aspects that stem from its professional activity, and which would help to improve the perceived quality of health services, thus humanizing the professional act of caring. This study aims, through theoretical discussion and the constant comparison method, to demonstrate the nursing profession's need to know the various bioethical models; especially the so-called "ethics of care", a model proposed in 1982 by the American psychologist and philosopher Carol Gilligan, which may serve as the foundation to define a specific nursing bioethical model. Likewise, this article aims to explain the difference between ethics of care and ethics of caring.
