Processos de trabalho do psicólogo nas equipes da rede de atenção primária à saúde: as possibilidades de construção de um trabalho interdisciplinar.

Abstract

The transition from the biomedical model to a model of health care that attends to several social determinants in the health-disease process, summons the actors who are part of it, an ethical and political stance to understand and intervene with the social subjects that are attended by the health services. Therefore, this work has the objective of understanding the work processes of the psychology professional in the teams of the Primary Health Care network. This is a qualitative research carried out in the basic care services of the city of Sobral - CE. To collect information, the following instruments were used: systematic observation of the activities performed in the services, semi-structured interviews and field diary. A total of 7 informants, among psychologists, other professionals of the teams and users of the services were included in the study. The professionals interviewed report difficulty in working in an interdisciplinary way and end up reinforcing the logic of referrals. In some cases, psychologists feel that their work is not being effective due to a mismatch between what is idealized through theory and what occurs in the daily work. Finally, the importance of articulation between managers and team professionals is established in order to create spaces for dialogue, in which one can reflect critically and continuously on the work developed by service professionals, as well as the political and ethical content that the health work calls.
