Abstract: Descriptive study that aimed at to analyse accusations of bad medical and nursing practicing published in newspapers of a city in the Northeast region of Brazil, from January 1999 to December 2002. We respected the principles of Resolution 196/96. We collected data from newspapers that we called “The Voice of the People” and “The Citizen’s Tribune”. Charges of bad practicing were made on the nurse, on the doctor and on the health institution and involve negligence and imprudence. We concluded that the academy, health professionals and the population need acquire critical, reflexive awareness committed to the combat of bad practicing.
