OBJECTIVE: To analyze nurses' means of work used in the articulation of the Psychosocial Care Network (PCN) Method: An exploratory-descriptive qualitative study conducted at the PCN of a District Health Management in Porto Alegre. The data collection technique used was the semi-structured interview held from October to December 2017. Data was subjected to thematic analysis under the Marxist theory of the Labor Process. RESULTS: The analysis resulted in two thematic categories: Care Management and Care Practices. The first consists of two means of work: team coordination and meetings with the other components of the territory. The second involves three means of work: telephone contacts with PCN services; user referrals in the PCN and matrix support. Final considerations: In view of overcoming the asylum model, nurses' means of work are instruments for producing dialogs aimed at expanding psychosocial care.
