INTRODUCTION: There is a need for educated primary health nurses to develop their practice, educational and career pathways in response to opportunities emerging from the Primary Health Care Strategy (PHCS). This study aimed to explore the opportunities and constraints encountered by practice nurses when participating in post-registration education. METHODS: This study used exploratory qualitative design, incorporating focus group interviews with 16 practice nurses employed by Pegasus Health, Christchurch. Qualitative thematic analysis used a general inductive approach. FINDINGS: Seven key themes emerged, including motivation to learn, enablers for learning and challenges to accessing education. Practice nurses also described their changing roles with clients and their vision for practice nursing in the future. CONCLUSION: This study considered accessibility of post-registration education for practice nurses and the extent to which they are embracing these opportunities in order to meet their practice needs. The PHCS states that primary health care nursing is crucial to its implementation. Successful expansion of primary health care nursing roles rests on the development of educational qualifications and skills, as well as career frameworks. It is envisaged that, with strong leadership and research skills resulting from professional development, practice nurses will be more able to reduce health inequalities. Study findings indicate that practice nurses are rising to the challenge of expanding their roles and engaging in post-registration education. They are more likely to pursue this if constraints are minimised and support increased. Currently practice nurses make significant contributions to primary health care and have the potential for an even greater contribution in the future.

Objective: to analyze how nurses who provide home care discard contaminated materials in primary health care. Methods: a descriptive study was carried out, with 42 nursing professionals working in 21 Basic Health Units of a capital city in the Northeast of Brazil. The statements were processed in the IRaMuTeQ and analyzed by the Descending Hierarchical Classification. Results: Three classes were obtained: Domiciliary Solid Residues produced during the domiciliary visit, How the dynamics of the attendance influence in the production of residues?, Responsibility for the production and Management of Solid Residual Domiciliary. Conclusion: There is a correct conception about the solid waste formation in the health services and consequent adequate disposal of the same, however there is a gap between the knowledge and the implementation of this action in the daily practice of these professionals.

Introdução: A atuação da enfermagem ao indivíduo em cuidados paliativos (CP) na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) visa a promover a qualidade de vida dos indivíduos e da sua família como garantia da assistência integral, para um cuidado humanizado e digno, melhorando a maneira de enfrentar a doença e minimizando o sofrimento. Objetivo: Analisar e sintetizar a produção científica relacionada à assistência do enfermeiro ao indivíduo em CP nas APS. Método: Revisão integrativa da literatura realizada nas bases de dados Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS), Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE) via PubMed, Base de Dados de Enfermagem (BDENF) e Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), utilizando os descritores: Palliative Care, Nursing e Primary Health Care. Resultados: Foram analisados 17 artigos após seleção sistemática, sintetizados em um quadro com seus principais resultados e agrupados em três categorias: capacitação em CP: uma barreira para atuação do enfermeiro na APS; percepções, experiências e práticas dos enfermeiros nos CP; o papel do enfermeiro na equipe multiprofissional de CP. Conclusão: Notou-se que os enfermeiros possuíam conhecimento superficial acerca dos CP na APS, evidenciando a necessidade de educação continuada para promover a sua atuação em CP. Ademais, estudos com maior rigor metodológico com o foco no enfermeiro como agente disseminador da prática são necessários.
