Abstract

Aim:  to  offer  subsidies  to  broaden  the  discussion  regarding  the teaching of practices in the prevention and control of infection in the training of nurses. Material  and  Methods:  an  exploratory,  descriptive,  qualitative  approach,  based  on  the Collective Subject Discourse method. The participants were 42 nursing students from a Brazilian  higher  education  institution.  Data  were  processed  and  analyzed  by  the Descending  Hierarchical  Classification.  Results:  four  classes  of  nursing  care  were obtained in the prevention and control of infection, the conceptual bases, responsibilities and  the  acquisition  of  knowledge  for  safe  care.  Conclusion:  the  training  of  human resources   in   nursing   with   the   emphasis   on   infection   prevention and   control   is challenging,  especially  due  to  the  constant  evolution  of  the  theme.  In  this  dynamic scenario,  nursing  education  requires,  among  other  aspects,  to  overcome  conceptual weaknesses and misconceptions for the development of safe and harmless health care.
