Summary
In 1931, the discipline Psychiatry was included in the curriculum, theoretical and administered by physicians, making nursing training in this specialty very influenced by medical discourse. Psychiatric Nursing was introduced in the curriculum in 1933, taught by EAN nurse professor, consisting of two blocks in the classroom, one theoretical and the other with training of nursing techniques used in psychiatry.[1,2]. This trajectory of teaching psychiatry to nursing through medical discourse was not exclusive to EAN. Psychiatrists have assumed the knowledges for the training of nursing staff, through the creation of nursing schools and/or the implementation of informal methods of teaching within the work institutions, for two reasons: that there are no nursing professionals qualified for such task and to promote the moralization of the same, so that they were able to execute what was known by Moral Treatment.[3]
