Pinheiro EMN, Borges FA, Lima NMFV, Severo AKS. Analysis of professional implications with staff of a Psychosocial Care Center in the northeast of Brazil. Interface (Botucatu). 2022; 26:e210449. Doi: https://doi.org/10.1590/interface.210449
This study analyzed professional practices together with Psychosocial Care Center (Caps) staff, focusing on the professional implications for the Mental Health institution. We conducted an intervention study using Institutional Analysis as a theoretical and methodological framework, with emphasis on the Institutional Socio-clinical approach. The study was conducted in a Caps II in a city in the state of Rio Grande do Norte between May 2019 and October 2020. The data were collected using conversation circles underpinned by the principles of Permanent Health Education, seven individual interviews and a research diary. The analyses made certain Mental Health Care institutions “speak”, leading workers to set in motion instituting movements. The findings highlight important issues to guide continuing education policy and strategies.
