OROFINO, Maria Marta e SILVA, Márcia Ivana de Lima e. Narratives in health: fifteen minutes of literature in the production of care by multiprofessional teams. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2020, vol.24, e190775. Epub 19-Jun-2020. ISSN 1807-5762. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.190775.
This article analyses the contributions brought by narratives, creating an applied literature studies modeling, aimed to collaborate in the debate on possible practices of care production in multiprofessional teams. The proposal of fifteen-minute meetings, based on the experience of readings and writings that are shared in the daily work, was implemented at a Brazilian public hospital. Paul Ricoeur’s literary hermeneutic model was used for interpretation. The results point out that the intervention was achieved in the proposed time; during that time workers lived the experience of an encounter through narratives, revealing the power of literature to bridge fiction and real life closely, therefore creating possibilities of awakening to life’s sensitivity.
Keywords: Intervention; Narratives; Applied literature; Care production.
