This paper discusses the nature of the act of nursing. From the doctrinal perspective, it is clear that the technical or artistic aspect of the decision is part nurse, as professional activity, nursing involves the management and implementation of a number of specific skills are a must in the professional person. Along with the production side, the nurse act is a reasonable size. Technical decisions are based on moral assumptions that can not be alien to the care, precisely because they care about people.

Keywords : act of nursing; prudence; care.
