Abstract

The aim of this study was to uncover the experience lived by nurses working in the liver transplant program of a public hospital. In order to understand the nurse's experience, a qualitative research based on the "situated-phenomenon structure" was designed. The propositions obtained showed that the essence of the phenomenon "living the experience of nursing assistance to patients in the liver transplant program of a public hospital" was uncovered as living a situation which hides needs, difficulties, contradictions, conflicts and satisfaction.
