A política de humanização e a estratégia saúde da família: visões e vivências

This study approaches the topic of humanization in health that involves the set of policies implemented by the Ministry of Health in Brazil. Its aims are directed towards a reflection on the guiding theoretical and organizing axes of the National Humanization Policy (NHP) and their repercussions on municipal health policy of Natal, Brazil; an analysis of the results of the policy at the local level; knowledge of the views and experiences of the humanization agents in the daily work process and identification of the main challenges of the policy. The empirical field of investigation was the Family Health Strategy (FHS) of the city of Natal. The assumption of the study is that the FHS has produced local experiences with potentialities that must not be wasted, in which there are difficulties and discrepancies between the real and proposed model. The contradictions and challenges in the social and political context of Brazil in the early XXI century and their consequences in the field of health reflect anti-utilitarian aspects anchored strongly in the theoretical concepts of Boaventura de Sousa Santos about the sociology of privations and emergencies as well as of the work of translating. The predominantly qualitative approach collects some complementary quantitative data. The study procedures used were the following: bibliographic research; documental research; interviews; and direct observation. Interpretation of the information obtained was based on documental analysis and on the symbolic cartography of the social representations. Cartographic evidence suggests that practices still take place under dehumanizing conditions that compromise the quality of care given. However, there is a movement aimed at changing the work process that has been strengthening the link and widening the measures developed, incorporating new directions in diversity, integrality and solidarity. The map drawn shows a reality manifested by explicit intentions in a political agenda, by concrete solutions marked by an assortment of difficulties and expressed in the words of the agents and by latent clues identified in successful local experiences, posing many challenges for the consolidation of the proposed changes

Política de atenção à saúde do idoso em Mossoró/RN: potencialidades e possibilidades para promoção do envelhecimento saudável no estado do Rio Grande do Norte

It discusses the Health Care of the Elderly in the town of Mossoró, traversing the paths that discussed the history of health care, which has been altered by the new (con) formation and required adjustments of society which led the development and implementation of the National Health Care for the Elderly with the backdrop of the guiding principles of the Health System - SUS. The goals outlined were: To map the implementation of the policy of health care for the elderly in Mossoró considering whether this is based on the principles and guidelines of the NHS and National Health Policy of the Elderly; Check if health promotion is seen as a strategy that favors the elderly mossoroenses the possibility of healthy aging; identify the discourse of the elderly about the aging process and the strategies you use to take care of your needs. Applies as a methodological strategy BOAS, complemented by interviews with twenty (20) elderly residents of Mossoró with a view to understand the objective elements, and the political and subjective traits that express a regularity which marks the area of health care mossoroense elderly. The data were tabulated and the BOAS divided into nine sections for analysis. The speeches were transcribed seized and subjected to a thorough reading that allowed the visualization of issues that have been examined with theoretical and methodological support to the model proposed by Boaventura de Souza Santos (2006) designated this cosmopolitan reason being supported by three meta-sociological procedures, namely, the sociology of absences, the sociology of translation work and emergencies. It appears as a result the exclusion and discrimination of the elderly in different social settings, a condition that prevents them from being aware of their importance as citizens deserving of decent treatment and respect for the family, society and the government, when addressing health the elderly said the need to propose alternative models of care that has the paradigm of health promotion. We conclude that in these areas, meetings are held, to draw lines that were heterogeneous because they were built by the dissimilarities that engender incessantly and show that although we have advanced regarding the attention of the elderly in Mossoró there is still a long way to go in order to meet the needs revealed by the elderly. It is suggested that the practice of trial-creation-differentiation, while highlighting the historical and procedural dimension, deconstructions and negotiations with collective effects. A democratic paradigm and analytical creeps: the constitution are moments of Health Care for the Elderly shaping a new landscape in the town of Mossoró.

Ao longo das últimas décadas diversos países, inclusive o Brasil têm implementado políticas de atenção em saúde mental, baseadas no elemento central comum de alteração do eixo da atenção do hospital para a comunidade, objetivando a continuidade do cuidado e a atenção integral, um processo de se costuma denominar de Reforma Psiquiátrica. Buscando compreender qual o modelo de assistência aplicado no Pará entre 2007 e 2010, o tradicional, manicomial ou o da reforma psiquiátrica e quais os resultados da política em termos de impacto?” esta pesquisa foi realizada, a partir de uma revisão bibliográfica sobre os processos de reforma psiquiátrica em vários países da Europa, da América Latina sem perder de vista as especificidades do Brasil e do Pará e uma análise sobre o papel do Estado, das políticas públicas sociais, dentre elas a política pública de Saúde e o Sistema Único de Saúde, além de análise de documentos e entrevistas com os executores das políticas. Como resultados foram observados avanços na política de saúde mental entre 2007 e 2010, tais como aumento (96%) no número de serviços, ainda que com a efetividade questionada tanto pela gestão quanto pelo movimento social, além de um estabelecimento de canal de diálogo entre gestão e movimento social através de conselhos gestores, ouvidorias internas e eventos de capacitação diversos. Por outro lado, os problemas estruturais persistem e de acordo com a análise efetuada têm relação com o contexto político-econômico vivenciado pelo Brasil de aprofundamento das desigualdades sociais e da negação dos direitos sociais, econômicos, culturais e ambientais instituídos na Constituição de 1988. Fica evidenciada, assim, a consolidação do processo de globalização neoliberal, com ações voltadas para a estabilidade econômica e focalização de políticas públicas sociais. Como alternativa a essa situação a autora apresenta o ponto de vista de que o SUS é um sistema em construção e que o desafio posto na atual conjuntura que tenha por objetivo superar as profundas desigualdades sociais através de um movimento de massas que retome as propostas de superação da crise e avance em propostas concretas.

Serviços-escola de psicologia do Rio Grande do Norte: formação profissional e política pública de saúde em debate

The Psychology University Services is stablished normatively as an indispensable equipment to the recognition of the graduation courses of psychologists by the Brazilian Education Ministery. The Public Healthcare Policies (Universal Health System/SUS) constitutes itself as a input field of the professional category, but shows huge challenges in the formation of these professionals. The objective of this work is to analyse the functioning of the Psychology University Services (SEP) and the Superior Educational Institutions from Natal, understood as important formation devices to attend the actual demands of the psychologist's work on SUS. For this, it sought a) characterize the psychological practices developed in the SEP; b) relate the National Curricular Lines of Direction of the psychology courses to the skills and competences developed in the SEP to the performance on the public healthcare policies; c) mapping ways of including the SEP in the network designed by the healthcare policy. Interviews were performed with 13 academic supervisors, 8 field supervisors and technicians of superior level (TNC), along with 9 managers, being for of the Psychology University Services and 5 of the graduation programs. Questionnaires were also applied to 57 interns and 24 graduates. Besides that, two conversation circles were performed with the faculty and technician members from two of the Educational Institutions that were participating of the research, as well as a workshop with students and psychologists, promoted by the CRP 17. We observed that most part of the faculty members and managers know the DCN and comprehend that the formation is in process of change in what concerns to the extension of the formation to the performance of the psychologists in various contexts. However, most part of the TNC don't know about them. Moreover, the results point to the predominance of the assisting model based on the traditional clinic psychology, although the articulation with the public healthcare and social assistance networks can already be timidly visualized. Different modalities of practices in theses Psychology University Services were also detected, such as conversation groups, thematic workshops, organizational consultancies, team meetings with the interns and TNS in a daily basis, matriciament in mental health, therapeutic monitoring, among others. Yet, the SEP in Rio Grande do Norte are still isolated from the other courses that perform in the healthcare area and also from the services that compose the public healthcare and public policies.

USOS DO TERRITÓRIO E MUNICIPALIZAÇÃO DA POLÍTICA DE ASSISTÊNCIA FARMACÊUTICA EM CAMPINAS-SP: FITOTERÁPICOS E PLANTAS MEDICINAIS

O objetivo do trabalho é investigar a municipalização do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) brasileiro a partir de um de seus elementos: as pactuações federativas para a assistência farmacêutica em Campinas-SP. Apesar do municipalismo ter sido a principal força de criação do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) a partir da Constituição de 1988, vigora certa centralização do poder decisório. Portanto, um importante desafio político colocado à mais plena descentralização é o estímulo a pactuações federativas que fortaleçam o papel dos estados, municípios e fóruns regionais. Contudo, a descentralização do sistema de saúde não perpassa apenas a questão de ganho de autonomia de estados e municípios, mas, de expressão e incorporação dos conteúdos dos lugares na condução política de um projeto de nação federal, porque aglutinador dos distintos interesses regionais. A problemática do programa de fitoterapia do município de Campinas-SP tem o potencial de permitir o entendimento tanto do processo de adoção de fitoterápicos e plantas medicinais na descentralização da assistência farmacêutica do SUS, quanto o de compreender os caminhos e desafios da federação brasileira a partir da diversidade de seus lugares.
