MORAES, Ludmila Nunes de et al. Madness and its truth in question: Discourses of hospital nursing professionals. Revista Portuguesa de Enfermagem de Saúde Mental [online]. 2018, n.19, pp.27-36. ISSN 1647-2160.  https://doi.org/10.19131/rpesm.0199.

The objective of this study was to analyze the discourses of nursing professionals from a hospital about mental illness and nursing care for people with mental suffering. This is a qualitative, exploratory research, with the Psychosocial Mode by theoretical framework being interviewed 17 Nursing professionals of the psychiatric hospital. The data were analyzed by Content Analysis using the techniques of Thematic Analysis and Analysis of Enunciation. Two categories were extracted: (1) Conceptions and causalities: between the concrete of theory and the abstract of experience; which discusses the silencing of the experience before the theory that ends up prevailing when one seeks to know what mental illness. (2) Invisibility revisited or exclusion as a rule in which the invisibility of madness reappears in the form of false madness. The presence of speeches similar to those of the early days of mental health care encourages reflection on the care and training of nursing professionals in the current context as well as community-based network care.
