The human being and the genesis of community nursing work

Abstract

It describes the origin of nursing work and its relationship with human beings according to cultural context where it is performed. It exams terms that are socially interpreted and accepted and that are full of meanings according to Western hegemonic medical model. It also discusses the concept of man and the apparent contradiction between universality and particular diversity . Concepts, from the point of care, beyond the purely biological that allow to build a network of meanings with a psychological and social origin and continually reinvent themselves.
