Politicity of care deals with the intelligent and disruptive handling of help-power. Such notion can mainly be expressed by the trihedron getting to know to care better, delivering care to confront, delivering care to emancipate which, when adapted to the work process in health, may become emancipatory. This theoretical-philosophical reflection explores the ambiguous aspect of care, expressed by being solidary and becoming political. Objectives: a- to reflect about the politicity of care, as management of help-power, which is capable of emancipatory subversion; b- to discuss the way capitalist societies deal with health care; c- to point out disruptive dynamics to nurses, based on the emancipatory trihedron of care. The main idea of this article is to indicate applicabilities for the conception of politicity of care in the sphere of the nursing work process, signaling emancipatory potentialities.
