Abstract
Investigação fenomenológica com objetivo de compreender o cotidiano terapêutico do adolescente que tem HIV/aids. Foram entrevistados 16 adolescentes de 13 a 19 anos, assistidos pelo serviço de saúde, conhecedores de seu diagnóstico, de dezembro/2009 a maio/2010, no Hospital Universitário de Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Os depoimentos, analisados à luz de Heidegger, revelaram que o ser-adolescente se mostra no modo de ser-com-no-mundo pela impessoalidade das características da adolescência e pela ocupação com as atividades cotidianas. Diante da facticidade de ter HIV/aids, temem que, além de sua família, outras pessoas saibam da doença, devido ao preconceito. A partir deste olhar compreensivo, emergiu a possibilidade do cuidado de enfermagem pautado em uma abordagem atentiva às pluralidades e singularidade(s) no cotidiano, e mediado pela dialogicidade com o ser-adolescente e família, a fim torná-lo protagonista de seu cuidado permanente.
