METHOD
Descriptive research using the critical incident technique, with the Snow Ball technique for the selection of participants and an instrument for collection of data. The reports were categorized according to the elements of the critical incident (situations, behaviors and feelings).

The majority described a situation of a physical examination, expressed mastery of the skills necessary for the activity and reported positive feelings.
