Entre nós: educação permanente em saúde como parte do processo de trabalho dos Núcleos Ampliados de Saúde da Família e Atenção Básica

Abstract

Abstract The article presents a study aimed to analyze the work process of an Extended Nucleus of Family Health and Primary Care (NASF-AB), questioning: who are those that support the matrix supporter? and how these professionals learn/understand their work? The research studied the work process with the NASF-AB supporters and, articulated with the perspectives of servitude and freedom in Baruch Spinoza, problematized how they feel and how they act, evoking thought-affection and thought-action. Methodological choices involved cartography and research-with. It was possible to identify team behavior that promotes permanent education in the healthcare field and the necessary collective enunciation that the NASF-AB must represent. It can be understood that “support for supporters” is objectively expressed through the processes of self-analysis (institutional), measures of permanent health education (among peers) and efforts to allow fear and hope to be expressed so that affections appear genuine and encounters may thrive (freedom). The action among peers, within the NASF-AB to learn, get ownership and practice the matrix support led to the understanding that it is something that happens as “among us” (the supporters themselves), invested with the perseverance of freedom in the face of servitude.
