Nurses' perception towards the teaching-learning process of Nursing management

Objective: The study's aim has been to reveal the nurses' perception regarding the teaching-learning process of the curricular component of Supervision and Management in Health and Nursing, and also about the support for professional performance. Methods: It is a study with a qualitative approach guided by the Paulo Freire's Research Itinerary. Results: The study was carried out with three nursing students from the Universidade Federal da Fronteira Sul who work in Chapeco city, Santa Catarina State. The Culture Circle, in which the stages of the Research Itinerary were performed, resulted in three frameworks, as follows: Importance of intersectional management during the nursing course; Dialogue between the academia and the service; Self-perception of capability for professional performance. Conclusions: The nurses revealed that management teaching shows weaknesses towards professional practice development during the graduation period, and also suggests that this matter should be approached in an intersectional manner during the training process.
