The study aimed to understand the meanings
assigned by nurses to the care provided in a Family
Clinic. This is a qualitative exploratory study based on
Alfred Schütz’ social phenomenology. The participants
were 10 nurses from a Family Clinic in the city of Rio de
Janeiro. Data collection was carried out through interviews
during the period from February to March 2012. Based
on the analysis of the interviews, the meanings could be
organized in three categories: Assisting and caring for
family, Promoting health and Occupational satisfaction.
We conclude that the meanings of care provided inspire
the need to consider the whole family as the focus of care,
with a view to developing initiatives to promote health
and improve the quality of life of the population, which
generates recognition and professional autonomy.
