Objectives:
to analyze the performance of nurses in the Bed Management service of a public teaching hospital.
Methods:
descriptive, qualitative research inspired by Dubois theoretical model. 32 participants from the bed management unit and care units of a public hospital were interviewed from February to May 2018.

Results:
the performance of nurses was described in three analysis matrices, represented by the categories: acquisition, implementation and maintenance of nursing resources; transformation of nursing resources into nursing service and results of the work of the nurse in Bed Management. Final Considerations: understanding the performance of nurses in bed management contributes to the scenario of new practices and different roles that favor visibility and strengthening of the nurse's identity.
