Psicologia e saúde : problematizando o trabalho do psicólogo nas equipes municipais de saúde

Este estudo problematiza a inserção dos psicólogos nas equipes municipais de saúde, a partir da análise da experiência de um grupo formado por psicólogas que trabalham nas equipes de saúde de municípios do Vale do Taquari. São municípios pequenos: um deles tem 70 mil habitantes, os demais são menores, entre 3 e 20 mil habitantes. O estudo foi realizado no período de março de 2002 a janeiro de 2004. Partiremos do pensamento foucaultiano com relação aos dispositivos, que no nosso estudo funcionam para o disciplinamento que forma-conforma psicólogos enquanto profissionais da área da saúde. Através de encontros mensais com o grupo de psicólogas, discutimos e conhecemos suas práticas nos serviços municipais de saúde, e os conceitos de Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) e do processo saúde-doença que sustenta essas práticas. A separação entre teoria e prática, ciência e profissão, mantida pelos cursos de graduação, aliado à manutenção de currículos voltados para a clínica tradicional (modelo médico hegemônico), mostrou que os psicólogos não se reconhecem como trabalhadores do SUS, mas importam para os serviços do Sistema práticas tradicionais, desconsiderando necessidades e especificidades do contexto sócio-econômico e cultural. A partir destas constatações entendemos que o psicólogo não se reconhece como trabalhador de saúde do SUS e, uma das razões fortes pode ser atribuída ao modelo de formação e prática que vem produzindo e reproduzindo esses modelos há 41 anos. Precisamos formar parcerias para inventar estratégias e promover mudanças nos modos de “fazer psicologia”.

Multidisciplinaridade e interdisciplinaridade uma análise da prática de atividades multi e interdisciplinares na visão dos profissionais que atuam nas unidades básicas de saúde no município de Petrópolis - RJ

A atuação de profissionais da saúde no planejamento das atividades para a promoção de saúde em Unidades Básicas de Saúde (UBS) deveria seguir as diretrizes recomendadas pelos programas de saúde, preconizadas pelo Ministério da Saúde contemplando, dessa forma, as atividades práticas multidisciplinares e interdisciplinares. Contudo, os programas geralmente são implementados e implantados parcialmente ou sem o devido planejamento de suas ações e, nesses casos, penalizam a comunidade local que fica carente dos serviços básicos de saúde necessários para atendê-la, dentro dos padrões estabelecidos pelo Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS); isto é, não é atingida a meta de ofertar assistência ao individuo na sua integralidade, por meio de práticas multidisciplinares e interdisciplinares. As dificuldades para implementação de atividades multidisciplinares e interdisciplinares, foram focalizadas na perspectiva dos profissionais que estão com o desafio de concretizá-las na prática, em sua UBS. Essas dificuldades perpassam pelo preparo e formação dos profissionais, abrangendo a integração e a comunicação da equipe, bem como desta para a Comunidade assistida, não se alcançando os preceitos de assistência integrada.

Prisioneiros da passagem : a clínica psicanalítica como potencializadora de trabalho com psicóticos na saúde pública

Partindo da experiência de trabalho da autora como psicóloga de dois distintos serviços substitutivos de saúde mental da rede pública, o presente trabalho visa analisar algumas proposições características do processo da Reforma Psiquiátrica brasileira, levantando, para além das diretrizes indicadas pela Reforma, certos impasses que se evidenciam na sua efetivação. Destaca-se a importância do suporte clínico, considerando-o fundamental para viabilizar o trabalho com sujeitos psicóticos e propõe-se o entendimento da clínica psicanalítica lacaniana como estratégia potencializadora neste processo. O trabalho com a produção delirante do psicótico, assim como com a produção criativa deste, é entendido, segundo a clínica psicanalítica, como fundador de uma possibilidade de constituição enunciativa capaz de ressituar o sujeito psicótico no enlaçamento social.

Alguns ousam chamá-lo de racional: um processo decisório na Secretaria Estadual da Saúde de São Paulo

A organização político-administrativa do Brasil, onde União, estados e municípios são entes autônomos com competências exclusivas e capacidade de legislar faz com que a implantação do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) apresente grande complexidade. Ao estabelecer que as ações e serviços públicos de saúde devem se articular por meio de uma rede regionalizada e hierarquizada e frente às diversidades municipais torna-se fundamental o papel articulador da esfera estadual. Neste cenário, as mudanças na estrutura organizacional dos equipamentos estaduais de saúde dos estados também decorrem do avanço da municipalização e da regionalização da saúde. Por meio da utilização de dados secundários provenientes de uma pesquisa realizada pelo Centro de Estudos em Planejamento e Gestão da Saúde da Escola de Administração de Empresas de São Paulo da Fundação Getúlio Vargas - o GVsaúde (Steuer et al, 2008), o objeto de pesquisa dessa dissertação foi um processo decisório ocorrido na Secretaria Estadual de Saúde de São Paulo em 2006, que resultou na criação do Departamento Regional de Saúde 1 responsável pela relação do estado com os trinta e nove municípios da Região Metropolitana de São Paulo. O Estudo de Caso foi a estratégia escolhida para concretizar a análise desse processo decisório e seu alinhamento com os padrões defendidos pelo SUS e com suas prescrições administrativas. Tentou-se identificar os elementos que auxiliam na compreensão do caso. Os resultados apontam que os critérios utilizados para a formulação e para a implantação desta tomada de decisão decorreram da percepção do tomador da decisão sobre o contexto político e sobre a cultura organizacional nos quais ele se insere.

O direito coletivo prestacional à saúde e o poder judiciário: a concretização do art. 196 da Constituição de 1988 pela via jurisdicional

During the ninth century, owing to the process of industrialization, new social conflicts were showed, forcing the Government not to remain inert. The necessity of answer to these new demands requires from the State some actions that assure the new economic, cultural and social rights, able to exceed the formal equality, according to the principles of redistributive equality and well-being. Among the social rights, the right to health is showed up, which is placed at the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Treaty for the Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, as a necessary term to promote the dignity and the free development of the human personality. Under the Constitutional Law, it is clear that the implementation of the right to health, placed at the 6th article of the Brazilian Constitution, demands a government activity, which usually requires a provision of material goods, depending on budgetary resources. The Legislative and Executive Branches have a very important role in compliance with the constitutional regulations about the satisfactory offer of health care services, besides the correct use of the resources at this area. The adoption of public policies is the way of Government action to the planning and realization of this right. Though, some public policies are usually made apart from the social compromises, to the detriment of the basic social rights. The government has a discretionary competence to manage the health services. That is the reason it is necessary the control of the political choices, through the popular control, the extrajudicial control by the Account Courts, or the judicial review. Owed to the constitutionalization of social rights, the constitutional justice has a very relevant role, concerning to the constitutional jurisdiction, in a way the Judiciary Branch assume your position as a player that transforms the society. On the control of the public health policies, there is a cast of official instruments, judicial or not, to the guarantee of the collective right to the public health services, and to allow the citizens to reach the real implementation of the right to health

Protagonismo silencioso: a presença da OPAS na formação de recursos humanos em saúde no Brasil

The aim of this study is to assess the contribution of the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) to the field of human resources for health in Brazil. The assumption is that this organization not only influenced the development of this field, but but that it was also influenced by Brazilian institutions and by national political movements, through the interaction of its consultants with these movements. Four projects were selected, through which the contribution of PAHO was evaluated: the Program for the Strategic Preparation of Health Personnel (PPREPS), the Project for the Large Scale Formation of Middle and Low Level Personnel (Large Scale Project), the Project for Qualification in the Development of Human Resources in Health (CADRHU) and the Project for the Managerial Development of Basic Units of the National Health System (GERUS). To operacionalize the study, we used three basic complementary procedures: a bibliographic research, documental research and an interview. The time frame considered was from 1975, the year an agreement was signed between PAHO, the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education and Culture, establishing PPREPS. It was through this program that the first PAHO team of national human resource consultants was contracted. The period between 1975 and 1999 was marked by political and social movements that changed the course of health in the country; among these was the Movement of Sanitary Reform in Brazil, which culminated in the implementation of the National Health System (SUS). This paper shows the connections of the PAHO consultants with this movement and the implications that this had for the Program of Cooperation in the Development of Human Resources of PAHO/Brazil. It also demonstrates that as the program became contaminated by national movements of health system reorganization and of democratization of Brazilian society, it proposed, in cooperation with national institutions, an organization of determinate areas of operation of these same institutions. The manuscript further reveals that, with the Large Scale Project, the human resources program determined the pedagogical and methodological option that would be the model for various other educational projects undertaken by a number of Brazilian institutions with the technical cooperation of PAHO. And finally, the repercussions and contributions of these projects, which strengthened the the field of human resources in the public health services of the country, are identified. Data analysis was based mainly on the theories of Bourdieu, Gramsci and Freire

The guiding questions were based at theoretical reference. To analyze the results, was used the referential of content analysis, and was refer to thematic analysis. In situations that were involved closed questions of the interview, was used the aid of SPSS 15.0 program for Windows. The results indicated that the process of nurse work in health care of children, focuses on the preventive character, whose focus of the actions are healthy children, following the routines and protocols established by the Ministry of Health with a view to maintaining health them. When analyzing the data through theoretical references of Composition Technique of Work found that the core technologies of daily tasks of the nurse are directed for the use of technology soft-hard and hard, and the reason established between the Dead Working and Alive Working, there is prevalence of the first against the second in the production of this care. These situations contribute to the explanation of the emergence problems related to adhesion of mothers / caregivers to monitoring the CD, due to character prescriptive and normalizer of actions. The results also suggested the presence of "vanishing lines" in the make of nurses, confirming the self-governance of health professionals in daily work. These "vanishing lines" express the own execution of the Work Live in action, guided by the use of soft technologies, however, was not characterized as a process of technology transition. So, to get a better resolution to the problems related to child health, the nurse has reorganize your work process by focusing on the execution of work live in action.

Gestão pública em saúde mental: um estudo em CAPS com gerência pública e privada do Rio Grande Do Norte

Currently, several models of management services from the public administration are in operation in Brazil following a global trend. Besides the traditional public management operated in SUS, there are ongoing experiments of privately management in the public health services. Accordingly, we have developed an investigation into two Psychosocial Care Centers operating between these two forms of financial resources management: the first is the CAPS II - PAR situated in the municipality of Parnamirim whose form is private and the second is the CAPS II West Christmas is that the municipal government. We seek to know the workings of services, planning forms and criteria for use of financial resources, identify differences between departments on ways to run and see how technicians and users participate in the planning and management of these resources. Documentary Research was conducted by the municipal Christmas and the financial administration of the CAPS service in Parnamirim. Were conducted an interview with manager (mental health coordinator of Natal) and another interview with an employee of planning department in the Health Department of Natal, an interview with the coordinator and financial administrator of CAPS - PAR and two groups of discussion taped conversation with semi structured script interviews with six technicians in CAPS PAR and six professionals crowded in CAPS - West.Differences were observed in the management of resources funded from four blocks of discussion and analysis of results, where the privately-run service for the direct management and bureaucracy without being discussed and planned spending on staff, as well as through meetings with users, the use of the financial resources available in box; already in service with municipal public administration there is a hierarchy, this answering the coordination of mental health and the local health department that centralizes resources and defines their spending. There are meetings with patients and families, but the demands are limited as to what can be sued because of the manager s authorization. Such differentiation would be related to differences in the articulation of public management with the different types of possible management in public services, where from the implementation of new public administration in the Brazilian s State Management Reform initiated in the second half of the 1990s, benefit management services with private regime, with autonomy and direct transfer of resources
