Abstract

This study is part of a more extensive project that proposes to recover significant aspects related to nursing care evolution from 1950s. This study is developed through the technique of oral declaration by active and retired registered nurses, in the context of an university-hospital from São Paulo State. The present study emphasizes the outcomes referring to the 1970s. As result becomes evident the undertaken effort by nurses in the struggle for profession's recognition and prestige; intense and deep transformations related to nurse's new roles as leadership of nursing staff and member of medical team.
