The aims of this study are to identify how the application of an information program produces changes in the nurses' behaviour in transmitting the information, and to verify the effectiveness of the introduction of a information program regarding the information obtaining on the part of the patients. It was an experimental study and the populations that were in the base of this study were composed by patients interned in medicine services and surgery services and for nurses that exercise its profession in medicine services and in surgery services. We conclude that the share attitude of information is higher in nurses of the group submitted to an information program comparing to the ones who were not. Similarly, patients of the group submitted to a information program obtained more information.
