Abstract:
This paper is the conclusion of a study on nursing's transactions during the night, in a mental hospital. It is demonstrated that therapeutical premises and nursing attitudes are defined by the position of the nurse into the institutional structure. It is also demonstrated that medical prescription doesn't depend exclusively of clinical criteria but it also cares for keeping institutional order.
