Description
Summary:Objective: The study’s purpose has been to analyze the nursing undergraduates’ viewpoint about the managerial competencies of registered nurses in the Family Health Strategy. Methods: It is a descriptive research with a qualitative approach, which has used both participant observation and interview techniques. The data were submitted to content thematic analysis. Results: Planning and organization proved to be the most important competencies for the nurses’ managerial practice, whereas the entrepreneurship was the least important aptitude. Conclusion: In the formative context of this study, the insufficient knowledge of nursing undergraduates with regards to managerial competencies, which is indispensable to the qualified and autonomous practice of the nurse manager of a Family Health Strategy, has revealed the need for interdisciplinary pedagogical actions targeting a better student preparation in order to perform such functions in their professional daily life.
