title: [Trans-cultural relationships in treatment situations].
abstract: This article comprises part of the theoretical format for the project "The intercultural relationships in nursing cures, a qualitative look", defended in June 2008 at the International University of Catalonia under the auspices of the Official Masters Program for Nursing. The effects of migratory movements inside a specific territory activate as they develop new phenomena among human relationships in practically all spheres. Nursing is not unaffected by these changes. This new scene increases the different number of ways to see the world according to different values and beliefs which can affect the quality of nursing care. The two theories described in this report, a humanistic theory by Paterson and Zderad and Leninger's cultural cares theory propose a reflection about each one of us and about the care we offer; and at the same time foment interventions from various nursing perspectives.
