Summary
METHODSThe increasing complexity of health care demands more and more integrated health care teams[1], in coherence with the proposal of teamwork. We highlight a typology for teamwork based on two modalities: team-grouping, with grouping of agents and juxtaposition of their actions; and team-integration, which advocates effective interaction of agents and connection of actions[2]. Teamwork is not reduced to a group of distinct professionals, but foresees a team that works towards the collective, based on the recognition, communication and appreciation of the other and their work[2]. It can collaborate to overcome the fragmentation of the work and the biomedical model, integrality of collective work, and professional qualification aiming at the effectiveness of care[3]. Each activity of the different professionals is performed individually, the practice of all of them together generates inter-professional and collaborative teamwork, with emphasis here on Primary Health Care (PHC)(4), whereas teamwork makes it possible to respond appropriately to users’ needs[5]
