In the first moment the user participated only as an observer, learning how to manipulate correctly the material, how to apply the medication and how to storage the bottles. In the second moment the user became agent of transformation of his own care. In the third moment the difficulties and doubts were exposed and in the fourth moment the encounter was evaluated.
