Abstract
For some time now, it has been heard, frequently growing, the term Humanization: Humanization of Health Actions,assistance to Mental Health, or in the areas of Obstetrics and Neonatology (Perinatal Health)... Sometimes the
concept is associated with ideas of quality, sometimes to rights, or even to citizenship... Some o are
equivalent to reception. and others, to the organization adequate physical resource amenities. would be all these possibilities of understanding the meaning of humanization? The use of the term is not recent: a booklet on Preventive Medicine from the seventies has already contemplated in his glossary. What will have made be so present today? Is it not done a conceptualization that is broad enough to account for several of the
aspects mentioned, but to establish a term of reference for scholars, researchers, administrators, managers of the health system and... users (of course!) ?
