ABSTRACT
Trata-se de um esforço acadêmico de resgatar fragmentos do processo de construção de uma entidade pioneira na representatividade da Enfermagem brasileira - a Associação Brasileira de Enfermagem (ABEn), que completou 85 anos de existência e criou o primeiro periódico cientifico de enfermagem, Annaes de Enfermagem, atual Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem, que celebrou 80 anos em 2012. A contribuição da ABEn para o desenvolvimento cientifico e profissional da Enfermagem no país é abordada com humildade e timidez analítica e crítica, uma vez que se tomou como base mais informações de fontes secundárias do que primárias, segundo uma visão panorâmica de 1926 a 2011. A subjetividade e seletividade dos fatos nos levaram a destacar algumas instâncias de poder em detrimento de outras para ressaltar pontos do desenvolvimento da Enfermagem brasileira como disciplina, profissão e trabalho.
This is an academic effort to rescue fragments of the construction process of an entity pioneering the representativeness of the Brazilian nursing - the Brazilian Nursing Association (ABEn), who completed 85 years of existence and created the first scientific journal of nursing, Nursing Annals, currently the Brazilian Nursing Journal, which celebrated 80 years in 2012. The contribution of ABEn for the scientific and professional development of nursing in the country is approached with analytical and critical humility and very timid perspective, since it was based more on information from secondary sources than on primary ones, according to an overview about what happen from 1926 to 2011. The subjectivity and selectivity of facts led us to highlight some instances of power over others, to highlight points of the development of Brazilian nursing as a discipline, profession and work field.

As a result, the public and other healthcare professionals are not clear about the standard of care offered by these practitioners.<BR>The Department of Health has found it necessary to regulate acupuncture and herbal medicine professions, in order to protect the patients and public from untrained or incompetent practitioners. In March 2004, the Department of Health published the proposals for statutory regulation, to seek the opinions of acupuncturists and herbalists.
