Objective: To report, in a reflective perspective, the experience lived by nursing interns in their practical process of training nursing care for a hospitalized deaf patient. Method: This was a descriptive study of the experience report type. The experience was lived in a reference hospital in cardiopulmonary intensive care in the State of Ceará, during the hospital internship of nursing students from a federal higher education institution, in 2018. This experience deals with the reflections obtained from the assistance in health care provided to a 50-year-old deaf patient admitted to an Intensive Care Unit. It was possible to accompany her for ten days. Results: The students faced two major challenges: implementing the technical-theoretical knowledge based on scientific evidence studied during graduation; and provide high-complexity care for a deaf patient. Both challenges were important for the interns' learning process. However, it can be considered that the most complex was to establish effective communication in care. Final Considerations: The health unit team provided, even with its limitations, quality care to the patient, based on ethical, moral and bioethical principles. The experience and reflections described were important for the acquisition and consolidation of technical-theoretical knowledge and the improvement of the clinical and critical judgment of the nursing interns and their supervisors.
