Abstract

During the course of our scientific improvement, personal and professional development in the Doctorate Course we were contemplated by the Coordination of Postgraduate Personnel Improvement (CAPES), through a national contest, with a (Sandwich) Doctorate Period of Training in the city of Porto, Portugal. The development of the project Nursing Humanistic Care to the Newborn in the Neonatal Care Unit: interchange experience in Portugal, was held in the period from September through December 2005 and was composed of a participant observation with 10 nurses from Neonatal Intensive Care Units, acting in two hospitals of Porto, about the care to newborns, on the humanistic perspective in the light of the Nursing Humanistic Theory, of Paterson and Zderad (1976). We highlight the importance of this interchange for the enhancement of the Neonatal Nursing and the human and professional growth of the nurses as able to rethink the do and the be and participate, with all the people involved, of a new way to take care in a humanized way in Nursing, in the research and in the teaching.
