Resumo: | Introduction: Primary Health Care (ABS) is known as the main and first gateway to the
SUS. Within the scope of primary care, the nutrition professional must follow the actions
that are based on the National Food and Nutrition Policy (PNAN) and which are already
part of the Primary Care agenda. According to the PNAN, nutritional care is defined as
care related to food and nutrition aimed at promoting and protecting health, preventing,
diagnosing and treating injuries, which must be associated with the other health care
actions of the SUS, for individuals , families and communities, contributing to the
formation of an integrated, problem-solving and humanized care network. Objectives:
This study aimed to evaluate the organization of nutritional care in the city of Caicó-RN
Methodology: The study is cross-sectional and quantitative. All health professionals
working in PC in the city of Caicó-RN were invited to participate in the research, as well
as professionals involved in PC management and nutritionists linked to the city hall. Data
collection was performed using the Nutritional Care Organization Assessment Instrument
(IAAN). Data were presented descriptively. Results: 57 professionals were interviewed,
with at least one professional from each UBS. Of the 6 nutritionists interviewed, 3 were
residents and another 3 were linked to the health department. As for the organization of
nutritional care, 63.1% (n=36) of the interviewees answered that there was no nutrition
professional working at the UBS. With regard to intersectoral actions, most professionals
(63.1%) reported not having teaching-service partnerships, given that residents and
nutrition interns are concentrated in four health units and the others are left without
coverage. Some Food and Nutrition Education actions are carried out in partnership with
education, as is the case of the School Health Program (PSE), in which 34 professionals
(59%) from the ESF said they participated. Although the number of UBS with nutritionists
is smaller, these are still the ones that most promote actions based on the Food Guide for
the Brazilian population.Conclusion: Nutritional care in Caicó has some weaknesses,
resulting from the insufficient number of professionals and low coverage of the proposed
demands. With regard to intersectoral actions, although Caicó is known as a university
town, there is still a weakness in the teaching-service interaction and partnership. On the
other hand, the presence of the Multidisciplinary Residency Program in Primary Care at
UFRN plays a very important role, as residents end up filling the shortage of SUS
professionals. |
