Acesso às práticas complementares em saúde no sistema único de saúde: uma análise sob a ótica dos usuários da Unidade Básica de Saúde da cidade de Palma- Minas Gerais

Abstract

The integration of complementary practices in primary health care has been growing and, therefore, there is a need for guidance to improve the flow of care with the implementation of these practices in the routine of basic health units. Access to complementary services depends on the organization and service flow and the type of offer made. This work aims to develop an intervention plan to implement complementary health practices for the population served at the Basic Health Unit Estella Paes de Carvalho, especially for patients with systemic arterial hypertension. To provide a theoretical basis for the intervention plan, a bibliographic search was carried out in the databases of the Virtual Health Library, in the manuals and ordinances of the Ministry of Health and in the records of the basic health units Estella Paes Carvalho. The intervention plan was prepared following the steps of situational strategic planning. It is expected that with the actions to be implemented there will be a significant adherence to complementary practices and as a consequence an improvement in the quality of life of patients with chronic diseases.
