Objective: To identify the nursing activities in the State of Minas Gerais Prison System.
Method: A cross-sectional, descriptive quantitative approach study was conducted with nursing professionals from the Prison System of Minas Gerais, Brazil, through data collection via an online questionnaire. The data was extracted, organized, and analyzed in statistical software, performing a simple descriptive statistical analysis.
Results: Of the services performed by the nursing team, the preparation, delivery, and administration of medication stand out, with health education being the least relevant data. When analyzing the differences between the work of nurses and technicians, quantitative changes in relation to the techniques are evident, in which the work is divided among the team.
Conclusion: It was possible to see that there is a need for adjustments in the work process, so priority actions are in preventing harm and promoting health and not just in curative practice.
