Methodology: Descriptive study, with a qualitative approach and participant observation, carried out in a reference institute in oncology, located in the State of Rio de Janeiro, from October to November 2020. A field diary was prepared based on data referring to the actions taken by the professional during the nursing consultation, the flow of patients seen in this clinic, the nurse's notes in the patient record book, and the researcher's impressions. Results: After careful analysis of the data, two categories of analysis emerged: administrative actions and technical and educational actions.
