Se establece el análisis de la situación de enfermería dentro de la cuestión ¿qué es y qué no es cuidado de enfermería?, desde la óptica filosófica y paradigmática de Leonardo Boff de los modos de ser en el mundo y el contexto socio-cultural de Florence, lo que pretende dar un significado o interpretación desde una postura epistemológica y ontológica, es decir, desde la fenomenología de enfermería. Estableciendo entonces que enfermería no es sólo ciencia o arte, sino una ciencia-arte de sentido común, con intuición, identidad y singularidad, así mismo; el cuidado es dado en un momento oportuno, en el acompañamiento del otro, dentro de una convivencia que se desarrolla con dignidad, lo que da origen a seres humanos complejos, sensibles, solidarios, amables y conectados con todo y con todos en el universo. Sin el cuidado, el ser humano se volvería inhumano, pues el ser humano, es el objeto epistemológico de la enfermería. Lo que lleva al desafío, conciliar los dos-modos-de-ser: trabajo y cuidado, desde la materialidad siendo el dominante el modo-de-ser-trabajo, buscando entonces un equilibrio con la espiritualidad, modo-de-ser-cuidado.

Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common diseases in the global population. It most commonly presents in women; however, there has been an increase in the number of men diagnosed with the disease, although at a lower rate. Its specific characteristics and associated risk factors mean that preventative measures are considered to be one of the most important methods of avoiding BC. Therefore, education is a fundamental part of this process. The objective of this study is to report on the educational interventions on BC carried out in healthcare between 2016 and 2021. To this end, an integrative review was carried out using the following databases: PubMed (NCBI), Science Direct, Scopus, SciELO and Google Scholar, using the keywords 'breast cancer', 'intervention education', 'prevention' and the Boolean operator 'AND'. Quantitative, full-text articles in English, Spanish or Portuguese were included. Finally, 19 articles were selected for analysis and it was found that, with regard to educational interventions on BC carried out in healthcare, one article included men and women and the remaining 18 included only women, with interventions carried out in sessions, workshops, in stages and using dynamic techniques. Therefore, there is a pressing need for educational interventions on BC for men and women at all stages of life; however, priority should be given to the young population in order to allow for early prevention. These interventions do not generate costs for the health sector, but they have a positive effect by increasing knowledge and promoting self-care.
