Recomendações para a qualidade dos Programas de Residência de Medicina de Família e Comunidade no Brasil

Abstract

Facing recent changes in the national panorama of incentive programs for provision and medical training in Primary Health Care, the Education Work Group of the SBMFC organized a National Meeting between November 29th and December 1st, 2019, in the city of Rio de Janeiro-RJ. The event brought together professors, supervisors, tutors and residents of Family and Community Medicine from different regions of the country, to discuss the current scenario, in addition to listing both benchmark recommendations for the quality of Residency Programs in Family and Community Medicine (RPFCM) and paths for strengthening the training of family and community doctors through Medical Residency. These recommendations sought to consider the diversity of RPFCM in a country as vast as Brazil and, mainly, the urge to establish the minimum organizational parameters for programs of the most varied configurations, such as: RPFCMs linked to higher education institutions (HEIs), state or municipal health departments. The recommendations were then organized into three axes: 1) recommendations for supervisors and coordinators and possible models of preceptorship; 2) recommendations for public policy makers and executors; and 3) recommendations for family medicine community leaders.
