Uso das metodologias ativas na prática do enfermeiro da atenção primária à saúde: um relato de experiência

Abstract

Introduction: Primary Health Care (PHC) plays a central role in the healthcare system, serving as the preferred point of entry for the majority of individuals. In this scenario, the nurse plays a crucial role in health promotion and disease prevention within PHC. The adoption of active methodologies in the nurse's practice within PHC stands out not only as an innovative approach but also as a response to the increasing demands for a more participative and effective role in healthcare. Objective: To describe the application of active methodologies in the nurse's practice within PHC. Methodology: This is an experience report based on the experiences of a nurse at the Family Health Unit (FHU) Varzinha during the second semester of 2023. Results: The implementation of innovative practices took place over a period of six months and included: identifying learning needs, discussions to pinpoint areas where they wished to improve their skills and knowledge, planning practical and interactive activities such as clinical case simulations, group discussions, and on-the-job training. The activities were also implemented in the nurses' work routine, allowing them to apply the knowledge acquired in patient care. Conclusion: The use of active methodologies proves to be well-suited for the daily practice of the eSF nurse. In light of this, based on the experience gained, it is emphasized that challenges are inherent, but throughout the implementation process, the participation of the target audience, along with the collaboration of the team members, becomes increasingly significant.
