Aim: to identify and to discuss nursing diagnoses applicable to people with paraplegia in initial phase of home rehabilitation based on Taxonomy of NANDA-I. Methods: it approached qualitatively diagnoses identified in care performed with three participants. They were organized and grouped within Domains and it was explored its associations, variations, related factors and defining characteristics. Results: domains like Activity/Rest (Domain 4); Coping/Stress Tolerance (Domain 9) and Safety/Protection (Domain 11) are deeply related with spinal cord injuries; this is considering that Domain 4 involves diagnoses about mobility, displacement and performance of activities for self-care; Domain 9 discusses responses to coping of stressful situation, and Domain 11 presents diagnosis related to presence of lesions or vulnerability for them. Conclusion: the diagnostic process developed at home facilitated the approach of socio-cultural, environmental and emotional context.
