Background: Faced with the chronic condition of one of the family members, Western peoples tend a normalizing stance of their daily lives. In order to optimize the nursing intervention in situations of chronic condition, namely with regard to the promotion of the feeling of normalization, it Is important to identify, in particular, the characteristics of this concept. Although several definitions of normalization have been found, some difficulties have been observed in their comprehension partly due to the use of the concept of "normal" In these definitions, giving them a great degree of subjectivity Thus, the current scoping review arises from the need to objectify the concept of normalization to clarify the nursing intervention. Objectives: This review aims at mapping the concept of normalization and clarifying Nursing intervention for its promotion. Method and research strategy: For the revision structuring, the recommendations of Joanna Briggs Institute were adopted, as well as for the identification and selection of the relevant publications, the three phases recommended by Aromataris & Riitano (2014). A three step research was carried out, with no time limit. The initial research was carried out in the MEDLINE full text and CINAHL full text databases, using natural language keywords. The second research was extended to the Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection, with the term indexed "chronic disease" and the term "normal*". In the third step the lists of references of the sorted articles were analysed. The participants are children up to 18 years old with a chronic condition and their family, and as a context nursing care. 32 articles were included in this review. Results: The concept of normal is inextricably linked to normalization. However, the "normal" of each family is unique and shaped by their life circumstances (MacDonald & Gibson, 2010), so normalization necessarily involves different efforts for different people (Deatrick, Knafl, & Walsh, 1988). Normalization should be encouraged in the nursing intervention, since the success of the process and the consequentfeeling of normalization bring frank benefits to both the child and the family. Firstly, family normalization allows the child to provide the necessary experiences for its development (Knafl, Breitmayer, Gallo et ai, 7996), minimizing the impact of the disease on it (Clarke-Steffen, 1997). Second, when the normalization feeling is present, parents can see beyond the disease, observing the increase in hope (Knafl, Darney, Gallo et al., 2010) and belief in a better future, for which the child is being prepared (Dogba, Rauch, Tre et al., 2014). In this way, the autonomy and independence of the child are promoted (Damião, Dias, & Fabri, 2010), which has a positive influence on the formation of their identity (Staa, Jedeloo, Latour et a I., 2008). Conclusion: The feeling of normalization implies the perception of a "lens of normality", that is, the redefinition of daily life in the light of the special needs of the child without this interfering permanently in the family harmony. Normalization is both an objective and a result of nursing intervention, since it is necessary to guarantee support to children and families from the beginning of the normalization process, with the expected result being the establishment and maintenance of it as a perceived feeling and conscious.
