title: [Challenges and limits of hospital support groups].
abstract: Every day nurses come across others who are suffering, and are consequently confronted with their own emotions, which can have implications on the provision of care. A support group can help them take a step back and think about their professional practice. Thanks to the exchanges made in the presence of a psychologist, everyone can reflect, within a group, on his or her relationship with care. The aim of these discussion groups is to modify everyone's subjective reality.
