THE TRAINING OF COMMUNITY HEALTH AGENTS AND CONSTRUCTION FROM THE MEETING OF THE SUBJECTS

Abstract This article presents a synthesis of observations developed in a research that had as objective to elaborate a pedagogical project to qualify the community health agents in health surveillance of the worker based on the perception of the subjects themselves. It was a qualitative study carried out in 2016, in Vitória da Conquista, Bahia, Brazil, which used the theoretical reference of action research and the focus group technique to approach the subjects. The first stage of the results exposes the view of the nurses regarding the qualification of the agents in health surveillance of the worker, and the second describes the participation and the perception of the community health agents in the construction of the pedagogical proposal of training. The nurses recommended that the training in health surveillance of the worker be built based on the assumptions of permanent education and showed interest in participating in this educational process. There was unanimity of the participating agents regarding the need for training. They suggested contents, methodology and didactic material for the construction of the pedagogical proposal, expressing the desire to participate in an educational process able to overcome the barriers of training, as a true process of permanent education in health.

摘要 本文整合呈现了一项研究的全部观测成果，该研究旨在基于研究对象自身的认知，开发一套教学项目，以提升工人健康监测领域社区卫生工作者（Community Health Agents）的专业资质。本研究为质性研究，于2016年在巴西巴伊亚州维多利亚达孔基斯特（Vitória da Conquista, Bahia, Brazil）开展，采用行动研究（Action Research）的理论框架与焦点小组访谈（Focus Group）技术开展调研。研究结果分为两个阶段：第一阶段阐述了护士群体对于工人健康监测领域社区卫生工作者培训的认知；第二阶段则描述了社区卫生工作者参与培训教学方案构建的过程及其自身认知。护士们建议，工人健康监测培训应基于终身教育的理念开展，并表示有意愿参与该教育项目。参与调研的所有社区卫生工作者均认为开展相关培训极为必要，他们为教学方案的构建提出了内容、教学方法与教辅材料方面的建议，并表达了参与该教育过程的意愿，希望借此突破现有培训壁垒，打造真正意义上的卫生领域终身教育进程。
