This study, of the methodological type, aimed
to elaborate systematized nursing advice for the discharge
from hospital of the neoplastic patient. The model
proposed for the guidance is based on Wanda Horta’s Basic
Human Needs Theory. The participants were 20 adult
patients diagnosed with cancer, receiving treatment in an
emergency care center at the teaching hospital in Curitiba,
Paraná, in the period March – May 2013. The data were
collected through semistructured interviews and, based
on content analysis, the psychobiological, psychosocial
and psychospiritual categories emerged, which formed
the basis for the construction of 10 systematized items of
advice. It is concluded that educational materials allow
the nurse – among other benefits – to identify the patients’
real needs, to evaluate the understanding of care advice,
and consequently to contribute to the continuity of the
treatment in the home.
