Introduction:
Nursing, as a profession, has undergone transcendental changes in Cuba regarding its functions as provider of healthcare services; as well as in the training process, which has undergone accelerated transformations, by stages and levels, and thus led to adjustments in the training model. The study programs are improved in correspondence with the social order and technical-scientific development, which allows a timely response to universal health.
