Percepções dos profissionais da saúde sobre o fluxo de atenção às pessoas vivendo com HIV/AIDS em um município do interior do Rio Grande do Sul

Abstract

In the course of its historical process, basic care was the gateway to the Unified Health System (SUS), with Family Health as a priority strategy for its organization, making it important to carry out actions aimed at the effectiveness of care within the framework of Basic Attention. In this perspective, as a proposal for the decentralization of care to people living with HIV / AIDS, it is necessary to consider the knowledge of all the professionals involved in the care of patients with HIV, realizing the need to use several means to ensure the reduction of difficulties and frailties that are eventually faced by patients. Considering the importance of this multiprofessional work and with the perspective of contributing to the constitution of a care line, the present work aimed to show the experiences and perceptions of health workers regarding the flow of attention to people living with HIV in a municipality. It is a qualitative, descriptive and transversal research that, through the development of a focus group, sought to understand the process of construction of the perceptions, attitudes and representations of the studied groups. The group had the participation of a resident pharmaceutical moderator, who used a questionnaire with some guiding questions to guide the group. Considering the perceptions of the primary care professionals, it was verified that there is a flow of care to the PLHA, but it is still necessary to agree among the nuclei to reorganize this service with a real integration among them, thus guaranteeing integrality in the service to the user.
