摘要：The objective of this paper is to contribute to the discussion about practices in the offer of care, guided by the challenge of escaping from the hegemony of prescriptive and homogenizing references in the field of Health, specifically those references that subsume processes of experimentation of a life in to a general and notion of life. This is done with the aim of fitting subjects’ experiences into truths that prescribe ways of living that are based on moralizing and undermining conceptions. Based on the work of the philosopher Michael Foucault, the focus of the paper will be on thinking about a way of being in the midst of health care work, grounded in an ethical viewpoint that supports the notion of life in its broadest sense, guided by what Foucault called the “ethics of self-care”.
