RESUMO

This thesis is meant to identify the knowledge acquired by a nurse in her academic education, making it possible that knowledge in the psychosocial service. It also determines the abilities she got in the daily work on a mental health team, showing to what extent her own job is connected with the jobs of other people on the team, as well as analyzing the components of her own abilities on the team work. It is a qualitative that is based on the theorical methodological reference of the Dialectical Historic Materalism, since the phenomenon of a nurse´s practice and knowledge in the context of psychosocial service is described in its presupposition, showing its historical and transforming character. The two landmarks of the subject of this work are praxis and interdiscipline. The three Public Mental Health Centers where the research was done are used as places for training nursing students. Data were gotten from interviewing seven nurses who work in each of the three places. The approach used was Discourse Analysis. From the interviews, three empirical categories were found. The first is the interdiscipline team work, which requires sharing and interchanging know-how. The second is the professional identity of a nurse, whose role is sometimes hard to be defined, but at the same time is specific when it requires nursing supervising and clinic knowledge. The third is learning x practicing, showing the paradox between the academic knowledge and the new challenges that appear in the practice of psychosocial service. It is necessary to define the job specifically, but we have also to be prepared for its expansion and redefinition according to new bases that will come from theory and practice.
