M.Cur. / The purpose of this research is to describe a model as framework for the nursing lecturer to utilize in the empowerment of the nursing education student as a reflective learning accompanist in nursing education. Because of the rapid changing political situation in the Republic of South Africa, unprecedented changes are occurring in education and health services. A greater degree of multi-cultural student numbers is experienced in classrooms at tertiary education institutions. Because of the increased accessibility to health services, these specific services are overcrowded by clients/patients. The overcrowding results in a shortage of trained nursing staff. More nursing students register at tertiary institutions, leading to a greater need for nursing education lecturers. These two aspects were identified as the most important causes of this specific research study in nursing education. It is assumed that the nursing lecturer, as reflective learning accompanist, empowers nursing education students to facilitate reflective thinking in their nursing students, by means of reflective learning accompaniment. This serves to improve nursing education, as well as the maintenance and improvement of nursing within a context of an increased need for health services. By means of more efficient education in the development of nursing education students, as reflective learning accompanists in nursing education, the increased demand for more comprehensive and more efficient health care services is addressed. In order to facilitate reflective thinking, the nursing lecturer must empower the developing nursing education student by means of reflective learning accompaniment in order to facilitate reflective thinking.

In the nursing, to plan and to execute activities are essential to guarantee assistance with quality. Descriptive study, with qualitative boarding, carried through in a hospital of great size, it had as general purpose to analyze the perceptions of the managers about the planning and execution of the nursing activities in a hospital of the public net of assistance and education of Goiânia - Goiás. The study considered as individuals 17 (seventeen) nursing managers of the ambulatorial units and internment units. The data had been collected using half-structuralized interviews and they were analyzed as what Bardin praises (1979). The results had shown that the managers elaborate the planning better than they execute and there are factors that interfere with the planning and execution of the activities. It was concluded that the managers adopt the participative planning, indicating change of paradigm in the administration. Between the factors that make things easier, they are the adoption of the work in team, the proximity between management and servers, incentive to the creativity and interest in the execution of the planned actions. The factors that make things difficult include the scarcity of human, material and financial resources; factors related to the components of the team, such as: motivation, lack of time, absence of training, difficulties in managing; insufficiency of support of the institution and of the other services of the hospital; inadequate physical structure; and the unexpected of everyday. The origin of these factors was attributed to the proper people, to the fact that the hospital belongs to the public net, the institution and the system used for the management of the support services. / O planejamento é uma importante função administrativa e sua execução possibilita o alcance dos objetivos estabelecidos na organização. Na enfermagem, planejar e executar atividades são imprescindíveis para garantir assistência com qualidade. Estudo descritivo, com abordagem qualitativa, realizado em um hospital de grande porte, teve como objetivo geral analisar as percepções dos gerentes quanto ao planejamento e execução de atividades de enfermagem em hospital da rede pública de assistência e ensino de Goiânia - Goiás. Participaram como sujeitos, 17 (dezessete) gerentes de enfermagem das unidades ambulatoriais e de internação. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas semi-estruturadas e analisados conforme o que preconiza Bardin (1979). Os resultados mostraram que os gerentes elaboram o planejamento melhor do que o conceituam e que existem fatores que interferem no planejamento e execução das atividades. Concluiu-se que os gerentes adotam o planejamento participativo, indicando mudança de paradigma na administração. Entre os fatores facilitadores, estão a adoção do trabalho em equipe, a proximidade entre gerência e servidores, incentivo à criatividade e interesse na execução das ações planejadas. Os fatores dificultadores incluem a escassez de recursos humanos, materiais e financeiros; fatores relacionados aos componentes da equipe, tais como: motivação, falta de tempo, ausência de treinamento, dificuldades em gerenciar; insuficiência de apoio da instituição e de outros serviços do hospital; estrutura física inadequada; e as intercorrências do cotidiano. A origem destes fatores foi atribuída às próprias pessoas, ao fato do hospital pertencer à rede pública, à instituição e ao sistema utilizado para o gerenciamento dos serviços de apoio.
