[Subjectivity in nursing -- the discourse of the subject in care].
This reflects on the importance of the client's subjectivity in the nursing care process. It focuses on the client's discourse as an effective component in the care and the resources he utilizes to care for his/her health. In order to have an efficient interaction between nurse and client, it is necessary to know how to listen to the discourse of the other, for it is there that surface representations, desire and motivation for the care of the body. The client seeks concurrently other forms of care that satisfy his/her subjectivity. I conclude that the client's discourse represents not only an essential contribution to the diagnosis, but that it is also important to perceive the client's expressions and to seek appropriate strategies.
