title: [Nursing role versus European role. The difficult bridge between teaching and health assistance in the new Europe].
abstract: The goal is to achieve that the maximum possible number of nurses arrive at the deep conviction that practice without theory is only routine and that theory without practice which justifies it is empty erudition. Therefore, the objective of this article is to reflect about the excessively frequent incoherence between that which is taught in schools and the practice which is carried out by the great number of nurses in our country.
