Abstract

This study aimed to reflect on the quality of life provided in nursing practices seeking Health Promotion, a discussion that happens since the International Conference on Primary Health Care in Alma-Ata (1978), later reinforced in the Conferences on Health Promotion and that is directly related to the quality of life. This is understood as the perception that someone has about their life in the cultural and social context, associated with desires, goals and expectations, and influenced by health conditions. The nurse plays an important role in all levels of care, being an essential professional to promote changes in the lifestyle of the people that promote health and consequently in the quality of life, through their care and "empowerment" of the person and their family. Some experiments confirm the health promotion of nursing practices with patients with certain chronic conditions, individual or collective. We conclude that it is necessary to increasingly sensitize the health and nursing staff, especially for health promotion in the context of SUS, who collaborate to improve the quality of life of society. © Servicio de Publicaciones - Universidad de Murcia.
