Abstract

Background: Was there bioethics before Potter? Certainly yes, and a clear example is the Nursing of San Juan de Dios, father of modern Nursing of the s. XVI. After performing various trades, it will be in Granada where he will reform the socio-health care by observing the great inequalities between people due to a social and individual conscience numbed by the sense of honor; developing a high sense of otherness, being his being, the other, framed within a community. And since the poor were his focus of action, the sick were his priority, since they were the most disadvantaged dying on the streets of Granada. Aim: Therefore, in this study we propose to describe the principle of Justice and Equality in San Juan de Dios through his care, influenced by his Master San Juan de Ávila. Methodology: For this we resort to the historiographic-hermeneutic method, being the documentary sources the texts of the same closest to their time. Results-Conclusion: In them we have been able to observe how their spirituality led them to take care of all kinds of people, being the poor, sick, women and children, the center of their actions. However, he took care of the entire population, awakening solidarity among the entire population, making them co-responsible for all their hospital reform through material and human resources. Keywords: History of nursing; bioethics; justice, equality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
