Capacitação de agentes comunitários de saúde: projeto de intervenção

Abstract

Introduction: This intervention project was developed for the Family Health Team - Promissão, in the city of Lagoa Santa - MG. It was found that in this team the Community Health Agents (CHA) felt difficulties in their daily activities due to lack of knowledge and initial training for the job. Objective: Develop an action plan aimed at training community health workers in a unit of the Family Health Program of Lagoa Santa - MG, aimed at increasing the effectiveness of the team's actions. Methods: We first carried out the theoretical foundation through the literature survey. It was planned an intervention project based on ten steps suggested by Campos; Faria; Santos (2010). This project aims an introductory training course for the CHA, dialogued with lectures and case studies discussions. The course evaluation will be done through forms of initial and final interviews. Expected results: Increase awareness of the CHA and optimize routine work in the community.
