Abstract
OBJECTIVES: to understand the nursing team's perception in relation to the care provided to pregnant women with mental disorders admitted to a psychiatric hospital unit. METHODS: Convergent Care Research carried out between August and December 2021, through semi-structured interviews with 25 nursing professionals from a Psychiatric Unit from a reference Hospital in Southern Brazil. RESULTS: the organized and analyzed data resulted in two thematic categories: Technical, generic and impersonal care; and From impersonality to the singularity of nursing care. Ensuring unique care for pregnant women with mental disorders means giving them a meaning of existence and providing care from a multidimensional and continuous perspective. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: nursing care for pregnant women in psychiatric hospitalization requires continuous professional qualification, interactive technologies and support for the nursing process, in addition to promoting singular and multidimensional care.
