[Self care as a condition for care to others in health practice].

We need to take a critical look at our practices and the relationships we construct in our personal and professional life, with a view to leading a life guided by ethics. In this text, we discuss governability practices that are built in the relations between health and especially nursing professionals, with the health institutions, with the clients and with the nursing profession. We conclude that, for persons to deliver care and guide others, like nurses do in their practice, they first need to demonstrate that they can guide themselves, that they know the limits of their practice and can respect the other as someone different from themselves.

[The customer's rights as an ethics matter].

Despite the technological progress in the health field, the symmetrical relationships between customers, health professionals and institutions has not achieved an acceptable level. This research presents a theoretical discussion on ethics and customer rights matters in the daily nursing service. It approaches the asymmetry of the relationship between health professionals and customers; the exchange of knowledge as a possibility of reducing this asymmetry; the users the of health service as consumers; bioethic and its principles; the questioning of daily practice as essential to ethics. It emphasizes the importance of reflection on the part of nurses in relation to ethic problems, in order to commit these professionals with the social transformations.

[Reflecting on the institutionalized elderly].

Qualitative and descriptive research that aimed at identifying how the elderly-family relationship has been taking place by identifying the reasons that led family members to opt for the institutionalization of their elderly, obtaining also the view of the family about home caring. Data collection was performed by using an open questioning instrument. Data collection was performed from August 2002 to July 2003. The subjects of the research were relatives of elderly people living at a home in a town in the northwestern region of Rio Grande do Sul. Through content analysis, it was seen that the greatest difficulty found by the family in spending time with their elderly relative is the "lack of time to care" for him, because most of them require full-time caring.
