Abstract: |
Oncological pathologies of the head and neck are increasing worldwide. This scenario in the care of cancer patients presents great challenges and requires qualified professionals to deal with this demand. This study aims to understand the perception of the team of nurses regarding the reception of patients with head and neck cancer treated at CACON of a University Hospital. The methodology was based on a descriptive, exploratory research with a qualitative approach, where observation techniques and semi-structured interviews were used with 18 nurses who work in the service for data collection which were submitted to content analysis. The results demonstrated the complexity of the subject, the importance of humanization and comprehensive care. However, the care provided is still focused on the therapeutic part. It is expected that this study may contribute to the search for self-knowledge, and also that new strategies can be built in the curriculum process for the training of future nurses. |
