RESUMO

Identify and analyzed the social representation of General Hospital nurses front of the alcoholic patient and the etiology in order to alcoholism. The subjects of the study were 20 nurses from three General Hospital in a country town of São Paulo (Brazil).The data were collected through interviews self recorded that were transcribed and analyzed by The content Analysis Method, having as category for analysis the theoretical reference of social representation. From analysis of empirical data emerged two categories: 1 - Social representation of nurses front of alcoholic patient. 2- Representation of the etiology in order to alcoholism. The results pointed out that the nurses conceive the alcoholic patient as a sick person, therefore, the alcoholism as a disease. In relation to working with this type of patient, claimed that it is unwieldy, in order that professionals are not prepared to work with this type of patient and that its assistance is permeated by the stigma and prejudice. In the representation of these nurses, the etiology of alcoholism is related to social, psychological, emotional and biological issues. It was concluded that the representation of subjects of the study front of the alcoholic patient and the etiology in order to alcoholism are more tied to common sense than to scientific-technical knowledge, wich ultimately refers to the needs for better preparation and professional training of nurses on the thematic alcoholism, in that the few knowledge about the theme can contribute to a fragmented assistance and guided in matters of moral order that pervade common sense.
