CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE EDUCATION PROGRAM FOR HEALTH WORK (PET), AXIS OF CONTINUING EDUCATION (CE), TO THE WORK PROCESS IN THE CENTER FOR COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE FOR THE ELDERLY IN JOÃO PESSOA
Abstract
Introduction: The Federal University of Paraíba and the Health Secretary of the city of João Pessoa have been developing actions in continuing education based on the Educational Program for Health Work, axis of continuing education (PET-CE), as of 2012 Public Calling. The PET-CE staff, together with a multidisciplinary team, develops continuing education activities at the Center for Comprehensive Health Care for the Elderly (CCHCE), starting with a reflection about the reality of the healthcare service and existing needs to then produce, collectively, strategies aimed at solving these problems. Objective: To report the contributions of the PET-CE project through the actions carried out in the CCHCE from August 2012 to January 2013. Results: We observed that professionals changed their practices; there was a greater democratization of relationships and strengthening of the healthcare service/training integration at this center, thereby contributing to improvements in the organization of such an institution. Conclusion: Continuing education has served as a trigger in the changing process as it allows the reflection of the work practices. However, it is important to maintain the conditions where these reflections are held, not to discontinue the changing process. DESCRIPTORS Health Education. Interprofessional Relations.
