Structured Questionnaire

This study had as objective to evaluate the care regarding syphilis provided by the professionals of the family health teams during prenatal consultations. For this purpose, a structured questionnaire was applied to physicians and nurses working in the health units located in the urban and rural areas of the municipality of  Nossa Senhora do Socorro, in Sergipe, and the results presented using simple descriptive statistics. It was found that 76.2% of the interviewees use the Pregnant Women's Manual during prenatal consultations, adequately recognizing each stage of the disease and the drug therapy to be instituted, but treatment is not started immediately due to a lack of medication in the unity. The interviewees (81%) carried out an active search of pregnant women who were absent from prenatal consultations, but 52.4% presented a strategy to attract their partners. It is concluded that the health professionals against syphilis have the knowledge, but they can not act in an effective way, making it necessary to discuss the knowledge and performance of these professionals, guaranteeing access to training. The need for improvements by health management is also emphasized in order to make the municipality's approach to syphilis more specific and qualified, increasing the chances of eradicating the disease.

And Performance

This study aimed to understand the conception and performance of health education developed by the Family Health Team with a view to clients' participation. Qualitative study carried out with clients and professionals at the Family Health Program (FHP) in Crato, CE, Brazil. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and observation between May and September, 2005. Data were organized according to content analysis and literature. Findings indicate that professionals view health education as guidance and teaching focused on disease prevention and the participation of clients is perceived as listening and attention. Thus, FHP professionals need to broaden their understanding of health education and educative strategies, which should be culturally meaningful, so that clients freely and consciously decide on their participation and behavioral change in health.

ABSTRACT Objective: to explore the communication of family health team professionals in providing healthcare for deaf people. Methods: this cross-sectional study was comprised of 39 Family Health teams located in urban and rural areas. A census was conducted and some questionnaires were applied to the Family Health Professionals (31 doctors, 30 nurses, 27 dental surgeons and 4 pharmacists) from the Family Health Support Centers. Results: the great majority of the personnel (60.8%) reported being aware of the existence of Brazilian Sign Language, but none of the interviewees had used it to communicate. Most of the Family Health Team personnel (68.5%) had provided care to a deaf person at some time. However, none of them had taken a complementary course or received any specialized training. Conclusion: the relational dimension is fundamental in developing individual therapy plans. From this perspective, the communication barriers that deaf people face can compromise the necessary bonding for healthcare, which may adversely affect early diagnosis, timely treatment, and adherence to required treatment.

This is a qualitative, exploratory-descriptive study that aimed at analyzing the perceptions of a family health team regarding participation and social control in health. The study was developed with workers of a Family Health Team in southern Santa Catarina. Data were collected using the Sensitive Creative Method and analyzed through the process of thematic content analysis. Regarding participation in health, two empirical categories were identified: passive participant in health; and dialogical process as participation in the Family Health Team. As for social control in health, the categories identified were: institutionalized space as a social control in health; and disease monitoring as social control in health. The results showed perceptions related to the reflections on the health model and others that indicate the possibility of advancements in the discussions with local contribution for participation and social control in health.

ABSTRACT Objective: to know and reflect on the best practices in nursing and their interface with the Expanded Family Health and Basic Healthcare Centers (NASF-AB). Method: this is a participatory research based on Paulo Freire’s methodological framework and developed from thematic investigation, coding, decoding, and critical unveiling. The information was produced and analyzed in four Culture Circles, with an average of five nurses and duration of two hours each, between April and June 2018. The investigation revealed four generating themes, unveiled during the meetings. In this study, the theme “best nursing practices that favor relations with NASF-AB” will be discussed. Results: nurses acknowledge communication as a tool that promotes best practices in nursing. It was possible to deepen the dialogue and knowledge about NASF-AB’s work process and the role of nursing. Nurses act as a link between the support team and the Family Health team, a skill resulting from their training focused on management, having leadership and dialogue as resources for conflict resolution. Conclusion: the present study contributed to improve nurses’ thinking and acting in relation to the proposed theme. The reflections made during Culture Circles boosted transformative attitudes in the practice settings. Nurse approximation with NASF-AB favors autonomy and collaborative practices (understood as best practices), encouraging interprofessional and solve-problem actions within Basic Care.

For mothers, the child’s suffering and impotence in the face of the disease stand out.

Professionals felt the need to expand their care, with a view to achieving maternal suffering and alleviating it.
