Abstract
Objectives: To identify in the scientific literature the identity-related configurations inherent to the nurse’s managerial practices of a professional that works in a hospital setting, and to analyze them in the light of the Structural Dialectic Care Model (SDCM). Materials and method: The article concerns about a qualitative research where an integrative review was made enabling the selection of 15 articles, analyzed in light of the SDCM. Results: From the 15 selected articles, three thematic axes were established: Leadership, care and conflicts. Conclusions: It was concluded that the SDCM has made it possible to discover the nurse’s identity models as a managerial agent in the diverse pluralities articulated to the identity-related processes of such professional.
