OBJECTIVE To analyze the decision making of students from a nursing higher school and understand how they make decisions in the care process. METHOD A qualitative study with an exploratory and descriptive approach was carried out with the case study method. RESULTS Six types of decision making were categorized by the students as follows: Decision about communication (15 record units [RU]); Decision about understanding (14 RU); Decision about intervention (9 RU); Decision about timing (5 RU); Decision about targeting (4 RU); and Decision about management (0 RU), with a total of 47 RU. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS Analysis of the learning diaries showed that students make more decisions regarding communication with patients and understanding of the care situation, than with the acting decision.
