Abstract

This study analyzed the continued nursing education process in three university hospitals in southern Brazil. Its theoretical reference was centered upon the problematization pedagogy of Freire and the levels of practice of Vázquez. This was a qualitative case study, based on multiple holistic cases. The data were collected through document analysis, observation of scenarios, and semistructured interviews with 22 nursing employees. The thematic analysis evidenced the continued nursing education process, highlighting initiatives such as the creation of the Center for Nursing Education and Research, the Permanent Nursing Education Center, and the Continued Nursing Education Program. This study serves as an important tool for the transformation of the reality of health care subjects and institutions.
