A cooperação entre os técnicos de enfermagem em uma ala de internação: desafios na construção do coletivo

Abstract

This study was conducted in a general large hospital in the northern region of Belo Horizonte, specifically in a wing of Internal Medicine, where the study was considered "heavy" and demanded great physical effort, which was accentuated by increased volume of tasks when there was absence of one or more workers in the ward. The objective is to understand the reasons for absenteeism among nursing technicians and understand if there is any relationship between this cooperation and absenteeism among workers in the ward. The methodology used was the Ergonomic Work Analysis (EWA). Came to the conclusion that the absenteeism of nursing technicians 6th A can be generated by tiredness/fatigue, because of the physical stress from activity, coupled with the increase in the volume of tasks and reducing the possibility of mutual cooperation when the scales are incomplete. In nursing, the explicit cooperation is common to perform a task, the work is essentially collective nature. After understanding the activity and the identification of the main problems experienced by nursing staff, recommendations were suggested, (organizational, work equipment and furniture) to improve working conditions.
