Although Brazil stands out as the eighth largest economy in the world, this country is burdened by huge social and economic inequalities. One of its greatest contemporary challenges is the construction of social policies, including healthcare, that seek to adjust social, economic, and cultural distortions. In the light of this scenario, Brazilian nursing has an important role in the defense of health with equity and quality of life, taking on a caring-based practice. However, to respond to these challenges in a propositional way, the nursing profession needs to reconsider its role and its purpose.
尽管巴西是世界第八大经济体，但该国却背负着巨大的社会和经济不平等问题。其当代最大的挑战之一是制定社会政策，包括医疗保健政策，以纠正社会、经济和文化方面的扭曲现象。鉴于这种情况，巴西护理行业在捍卫健康、促进公平和提高生活质量方面发挥着重要作用，采取以关怀为基础的实践方式。然而，为了以恰当的方式应对这些挑战，护理专业需要重新审视其角色和宗旨。
