- Abstract
Objective: to investigate the praxis of the nurse, the potentialities and vulnerabilities to which this praxis is exposed in Psychosocial Care Centers (CAPS). Method: a descriptive study, with a qualitative approach, in which seven nurses working in the CAPS of a capital of the Northeast participated. Data was produced through interviews and the speeches were submitted to the Content Analysis technique. Results: therapeutic groups, health education, individual care, home visits, medication administration and fostering were the main activities performed by nurses who consider teamwork a potential for their work. Deficiencies in material resources, transportation and the structure of the service together with low professional qualifications and the weaknesses of the care network were described as vulnerabilities to work. Conclusion: identified vulnerabilities interfere with the quality of care provided.
