| Summary: | Objective: to analyze the nursing protocols as a possible instrument for the quality for the nurse’s practice in Primary Health Care.
Method: a descriptive and qualitative study, carried out by means of documentary analysis and semi-structured interviews, with 14 nurses from Metropolitan Regions I and II in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Bardin’s thematic content analysis was used for data treatment.
Results: the category analyzed in this article was the “place of care”, which addresses the quality of care in nurses’ actions and its importance for the profession.
Conclusion: collective and dialogical constructions are motivating factors for the elaboration of local protocols. In addition to being a permanent education strategy, nurses recognized the protocols as tools for decision-making, providing them with technical and ethical support, which greatly contributes to the construction of knowledge and to the development of good nursing practices. |
