[Modern nursing work management trends: the case of cooperative companies]

This article introduces the issue of nursing work management from a theoretical and conceptual perspective by raising some implications for the management of organizations, as well as its impact on work relationships and, consequently, on the worker's health. The main results about ways and modalities of cooperative companies bring about the consideration that proposals of positive changes in the category run contrary to progress. Indecent work conditions, poor quality assistance and low compensation make up the main negative factors in this work process. Therefore, it is urgent to resume the discussion of what one expects from nursing for the future.
