The need to find the meaning of nursing activity independently of specialties, cultures, tasks, functions or competences, leads us to the usage of theories and concepts of analysis than can be applied in each situation, as a guide for the right nursing activity. Nursing philosophies and models provide us elements of reflection, creating doubts in relation to the practice, and once they are assumed, we recognize ourselves on them, helping us to the interpretation of the person-situation caring, carrying nursing to its matures side, validating Nigthingale's model. This work has the aim of implanting the basic elements of Watson, Parse and Benner's theories in order to analyze situations of caring and understand the clinical judgment emerging from the practice. The paradigm of complexity leads us to responsible practices, to think not in the objectives but in the process, not in parts or in wholes, but in subjects that are, at once, subject and object.
