This is an essay about care and education in nursing from integrative and converging approaches, elucidating that the dialogical process between the subject who cares and the citizen-subject who is cared must occur in a problem-maker perspective, contextualized and transversalized between the two conceptual worlds that involve the human relations. It shows furthermore that, to the professional exert the care and education, he must use a "passport" that conducts him to different "scales" of knowledge in a creative, aesthetical, ethical, political and technical approach. In which the education empowers the capacity of care and the use of it, capacitates him to intervent in a constructive/reflexive, singular/plural, dynamic/flexible way, in a given historical cultural context of relationships between subjects.
