title: [The intensive care nurse and care focused on the family: a proposal for sensitivity].
abstract: The aim of this work was to sensitize the nurses of the an intensive care unit, through continued education, to the importance of planning the care of the critical clients in partnership with them and their families. By doing so we meant to amplify the humanization and to bring Public Health System prerogatives closer to nursing practice. The nurses attended a workshop and from their reports emerged some categories of analysis that at some moments show resistance to modify the present practice and at other moments, the desire to transform the reality they live in, sensitizing them to the thematic.
