Students of the Nursing Course of third, sixth and eighth semester had participated in this research, accomplished in two universities in Santa Maria/RS. Semi-structured interviews were de signed to explore as the students deal with its own anguish, particularly, during the training. The data were analyzed emerging conceptually five categories: (1) There is not desire to take care of the terminal patient; (2) The search of preparing to take care; (3) Care the terminal patients terminals; (4) Taking care in itself is the Nursing; (5) Preparing requests to practical knowing , it emerges of a “ knowledge that is not known “. Although the space is recognized inside of the Nursing Course to address practical subjects, it is in the personal with the anguish situations that the student learns how handle with it. The reference done to the problem of the anguish still denotes in the student a precarious elaboration of the idea of death, expressed in the contact with terminal patients. From those concepts it was possible to find a road to understand as the students work with distressing contents during the contact with the terminal patients.Downloads
