Evidence on Nursing Administration Epistemology

Reflecting critically on the epistemological aspects of the of knowledge construction on Nursing Administration in Brazil.

This is an article of theoretical reflection that aims to assess the epistemological aspects of the construction of knowledge about Nursing Administration.

The knowledge about Nursing Administration has a long way to go, as its epistemological repertoire is still timid. In addition, the lack of distinction of this knowledge in the communication of research products underestimates the production on Nursing Administration, as these products appear diluted in other areas of Nursing (care, research, and teaching).

Due to the reflections, the need for new scientific evidence is highlighted, whose formulation of research questions can contribute to the delineation of phenomena that distinguish Nursing Administration as an area of research knowledge.
