Abstract

Although children have legally guaranteed rights to express themselves about what concerns them, they face obstacles in exercising these rights due to the lack of recognition of these rights. Objective: To discuss research results on the ways future nursing professionals perceive, in their narratives, the rights of hospitalized children. Methods: For the collection of sources we used narrative interviews via digital platform with 6 trainees (Nursing Technicians and Nurses) in the period from 09/2020 to 03/2021. Results: The analyses reveal the invisibility of the child as a subject of rights by future nursing professionals, which violates rights guaranteed by law. Conclusions: It is admitted that nursing education courses gain from providing the future professional with a more reflective and autopoietic posture on the understanding of the child's agentivity in order to better guide more humanized skills and attitudes in the childcare practices.
