- Abstract
Objective: to reflect on the role of nurses in the prevention of cervical and breast cancer in primary health care. Method: reflective study, carried out from a narrative review of the literature that included articles, legislation, Ministry manuals, based on national and international databases. After reading and writing the materials, a descriptive analysis was carried out. Results: the present reflection was built on the following theoretical frameworks: the importance of the nurse's role in the early detection of cancer and the difficulties faced by nurses in monitoring cervical and breast cancer, and by the educational processes associated with the preventive effects. Final considerations: the importance of recognizing the role of nurses in screening for cervical and breast cancer was highlighted, as well as underreporting and late detection, lack of knowledge and the need for educational strategies to reflect more the theme.
