PINEL, Hiran; FERREIRA, Herberth Gomes and BRAVIN, Rodrigo. Death and Hospital Class: possibilities for a comprehensive formation of the hospitalized being through hermeneutic phenomenology. Ensino em Re-Vista [online]. 2021, vol.28, e010. Epub June 29, 2023. ISSN 1983-1730. https://doi.org/10.14393/er-v28a2021-10.
The purpose of this article is to comprehensively describe death as a possibility for the Hospital Class Being-in-the-world and the implications for the training of educators who work in this space. The methodology used was the literature review and our theoretical foundation is the work “Being and Time” by Martin Heidegger (2012). Some of Heidegger's own concepts like “Dasein” and “Umwelt”, among other terms, as developed in Heidegger's so-called first phase in his work “Being and Time”, will permeate our work. The Hospital Class Being-in-the-world experiences, with hospitalization, psychic changes and also in their social life that can turn into anguish and fear of death. In this sense, a loving and understanding educator recognizes death as an existential possibility of this student, but acts to develop practices that collaborate so that he expands his possibilities of being and manages to transcend the hospital environment.
