Based on the nursing situation, the following knowledge patterns were analyzed: personal, empirical, ethical, aesthetic, sociopolitical, and emancipatory. The Theory of Caring by Kristen Swanson, with its five processes, facilitated understanding the meaning of the family’s situation, promoting an attitude of hope, sharing the experience, guiding care actions.
