As Santas Casas da Misericórdia na República Brasileira 1922-1945

O principal objectivo desta dissertação é o de conhecer um pouco melhor o processo de implementação das Santas Casas de Misericórdia no Brasil, dando especial ênfase à sua expansão durante o período de consolidação da República brasileira, mais concretamente entre 1922 a 1945. A necessária contextualização levou a pesquisa sobre as Misericórdias até à fase colonial e imperial do Brasil, acabando por demonstrar que as mesmas se fortaleceram no segmento de assistência médica, durante o período em análise, tomando o Estado brasileiro dependente das suas actividades. Este trabalho discute ainda o imaginário social da caridade e filantropia e a forma como tais preceitos configuraram a assistência médico-social no país.

Social representations of nursing students about hospital assistance and primary health care

Objective: To analyze how social representations of hospital and community care are structured in two groups of nursing students – 1st and 4th years. Method: Qualitative research oriented by the Theory of Social Representations. We used a questionnaire with Free Association of Words. Data were analyzed in the Software IRaMuTeQ 0.6 alpha 3. Results: We applied the method of Descending Hierarchical Classifi cation and obtained four classes. Class 4 has the largest social representation (30.41%) within the corpus. The two organizational axes are nurse and disease/patient in the central core. On the periphery are the care and help related to the nurse and the treatment and prevention associated with the disease. Conclusion: Social representations focus on disease/patient and on the role of nurses in the treatment, prevention, and care. Health promotion and the social determinants of health are absent from the social representations of students.
