- Abstract
Objective: To analyze the unfavorable characteristics of the nurse's professional practice in the hospital environment. Method: it is a mixed-method research, with parallel-convergent strategy. The quantitative data was collected with 106 nurses from a University Hospital in the South of Brazil, using the Revised Brazilian Nursing Work Index (R-B-NWI) and analyzed using descriptive statistics. To collect the qualitative data, 25 semi-structured interviews were carried out, which were submitted to thematic analysis. Results: the unfavorable characteristics of the professional practice of nurses in the hospital environment are related mainly to the insufficient quantity of professionals for the work and lack of organizational support. The difficulties that most stood out were related to the use of nursing diagnoses, and lack of support services. Conclusion: the difficulties evidenced interfere in the professional practice of the nurse and can also affect the efficient and safe care to the patients, as well as the satisfaction to the professionals.
