This article documents the experiences of the Health Work Education Program ( PET-Saúde ) in a public maternity facility in João Pessoa, Brazil, highlighting teaching-service integration actions. A descriptive study was conducted to investigate the experiences of the PET-Saúde group during the development of staff workshops designed to problematize continuing education. Themes like the humanization of care, teaching-service integration, and the need for formative spaces for professionals were discussed. As a result of this process, the PET suggested the agreement of a new dynamic for the day-to-day functioning of the facility’s study center and creation of a bulletin to increase the effectiveness of institutional communication. The PET-Saúde enabled the facility to build new formative processes shaped by a continuing education perspective.
