Colaboração interprofissional no Projeto Saúde e Prevenção na Escola

Inter-professional collaboration implies that there is a sharing of activities with a view to meeting a common goal. This theme was analyzed in the ‘Health and Prevention in Schools’ project (known as PSPE in the Portuguese) as a health promotion device. The aim was to encourage the sharing of ideas and information as well as intersectoral responsibilities and values in adherence to the principles of the National Policy for Health Promotion (PNPS). This was a case study conducted in a medium-sized city, in the northeast of Brazil. Our sources of information came from documents and questionnaires that had been applied to and taken from participants. We used the Inter-professional Collaboration Model designed by D’Amour et al. Based on the dimensions and indicators that were assessed, we identified that the project workers in the PSPE were guided by common goals. We noted that: their planning of actions was not guided by the needs of students, there were few opportunities for members to interact, there was evidence of their having confidence in the ability of others to take on responsibilities, infrastructures were not used properly and the leadership that we studied had little impact. We also noted that there were training processes for members. Our results showed that the level of inter-professional collaboration was at the level of “in development”.Inter-professional collaboration implies that there is a sharing of activities with a view to meeting a common goal.

Política Nacional de Promoção da Saúde: um estudo de avaliabilidade em uma região de saúde no Brasil

Resumo A Politica Nacional de Promocao da Saude (PNPS) baseia-se no conceito ampliado de saude e apresenta sua promocao como um conjunto de estrategias e formas de produzir saude, no âmbito individual e coletivo com responsabilidades para os tres entes federados. Trata-se de estudo de avaliabilidade com abordagem qualitativa, realizada em uma regiao de saude no nordeste brasileiro no ano de 2013. Participaram do estudo 18 informantes-chave envolvidos diretamente com a execucao da PNPS, sendo que oito sao secretarios municipais de saude, seis sao coordenadores da atencao basica, dois coordenadores da vigilância epidemiologica, um coordenador regional geral e um coordenador regional da atencao basica. Foram utilizadas para a coleta de informacoes a entrevista semiestrutrurada e os documentos legais da politica no periodo de 2006 a 2012. A construcao do modelo logico permitiu refletir sobre as possiveis influencias do contexto sobre a implementacao da PNPS. Os resultados demonstraram que a PNPS ainda nao esta suficientemente implantada na regiao de saude e sinalizaram para a necessidade de incorporacao de instrumentos de monitoramento e avaliacao especificos para esta politica.The National Health Promotion Policy (PNPS) is based on the broadened concept of health and presents the promotion of health as a set of strategies and ways of promoting health, both individually and collectively with responsibilities for the three federated entities. The scope of this study was to develop an evaluability assessment of the PNPS. It is a qualitative-based evaluability assessment conducted in a health region in the Brazilian Northeast in the year 2013. Participants in the study were 18 key informants directly involved in PNPS implementation, of which eight are municipal health secretaries, six are coordinators of primary health care, two are coordinators of epidemiological surveillance, a general regional coordinator and a regional primary care coordinator. The semi-structured interview and the legal documents of the policy were used for gathering information from 2006 to 2012. The construction of the logical model made it possible to reflect on the possible influences of the context on the PNPS implementation. The results showed that PNPS is not yet sufficiently established in the health region and pointed to the need to incorporate specific monitoring and evaluation instruments for this policy.

Caracterização das graduações em enfermagem segundo Exame Nacional de Desempenho de Estudantes

Objective: to characterize undergraduate nursing courses according to Enade (National Student Performance Exam) in 2010 and 2013. Method: a quantitative documental study was performed and descriptive statistics was used for data organization and analysis. Results: Enade report analysis enabled the identifi cation of a reduction in the total number of institutions providing undergraduate nursing courses that passed the evaluation process. The Southeastern, Northeastern and Southern regions of Brazil included the highest numbers of courses assessed and showed the best results in the two evaluation cycles. Additionally, the courses characterized as “without a ranking” were mainly held at private institutions. Conclusion: the results of these evaluation cycles are important to support investigative and intervention processes about and with undergraduate nursing courses.
