Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to analyze the meaning of the care delivered by a group of professionals at a basic health unit, in order to propose nursing actions that are not linked to medical actions. As theoretical references, authors used ALMEIDA & ROCHA(1997) and the ideas of CAMPOS (1992) and MERHY(1995). Regarding the group activities, authors used MUNARI & RODRIGUES(1997) and LOPES & MANZOLI(1996) considerations. From August 1995 to December 1997, authors attended 108 clients that spontaneously asked for nursing orientation in order to loose weight. All those showed significant changes in theirs lives and 85% lost weight. Nowadays, the group is recognized by the clientele and by the health team.
