RESUMO:Neste artigo procuramos reflectir sobre a dimensão ética do agir em enfermagem e a qualidade dos cuidados de saúde prestados. São analisados os princípios predominantemente colocados à reflexão, os quais pretendem ajudar na tomada de decisões cada vez mais complexas. Destacamos a ética do cuidado, cuja perspectiva tem especial significado nas relações que se estabelece. Falar sobre a dimensão ética do agir, quando a desumanização dos contextos e das relações profissionais se tornou uma preocupação crescente, leva a que se questione a qualidade dos cuidados de enfermagem. Estes cuidados desenvolvidos com base no respeito pela vida, dignidade e direitos humanos, devem constituir-se na garantia da defesa da liberdade da pessoa humana. Só nesta perspectiva, faz sentido evocar a qualidade da assistência à saúde. A dimensão ética assume particular relevância no processo de tomada de decisão e a sua clarificação e assunção por parte dos enfermeiros, nos seus comportamentos profissionais, torna-se um imperativo. DESCRITORES: Ética. Cuidados de enfermagem. Qualidade da assistência à saúde THE ETHICAL DIMENSION OF ACTION AND THE QUESTIONS OF QUALITY FACING NURSING CAREABSTRACT: In this article we seek to reflect on the ethical dimension of nursing action and the quality of health care provided. We analysed the predominant principles exposed to reflection, aiming to improve ever more complex decision-making processes. We highlight the ethics of care, whose perspective reflects a special meaning in the relationships it establishes. To talk about the ethical dimension of action, when the dehumanization of contexts and professional relationships has already become a growing source of concern, leads one to enquire about the quality of nursing care. These instances of care developed on the basis of the respect for the, dignity, and human rights, should be considered a guarantee of the defence of human freedoms. Only in such a perspective does it make sense to evoke the quality of health care. The ethical dimension assumes particular relevance in the health care decision-making process and its clarification and assumption by nurses, in their professional behaviour, becomes imperative.

Within the studied settings, an important lack of collaborative work with hospitalized children's mothers was observed. The weaknesses in the negotiation process and specifically the difficulties found in communication; the lack of roles and tasks clarification and the perceived power imbalance regarding relationships, prevent mothers involvement in their children care process, considered a basic component to achieve a greater mother implication, better results in terms of health and a lower impact of hospitalization in the children.
The mothers considered their participation in their child's care as very important, but this involvement was characterised by a continuation of the care provided at home. They developed other forms of care but were not fully involved.
