FERNANDES DE FREITAS, Genival; BARBOSA MERIGHI, Miriam Aparecida  y  PRADO FERNANDES, Maria de Fátima. The interface between phenomenology and nursing care. Index Enferm [online]. 2007, vol.16, n.58, pp.55-58. ISSN 1699-5988.

This study aims to reflect on the importance of phenomenology in the nursing area, as a possibility of opening up spaces to think about care based on the existential understanding of man, contemplating the human dimension beyond the technical-scientific perspective. Thus, the authors discuss nursing’s tendency, focusing on care from a phenomenological approach.
