A dimensão educativa do trabalho do enfermeiro : a percepção dos docentes do curso de Enfermagem da UFMT/SINOP

Abstract

This is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach, whose aim is to know the perception of teachers of nursing course offered by the UFMT Sinop Campus, with regard to the educational dimension of the work of nurses. The statement of understanding of the process of formation and professional performance of nurses was comprised of three steps: first, a comparison between the story of the teaching profession and the profession of nurse, to identify their connections; the second step was the context of the process of creation and implementation of the SUS in Brazil and its repercussions in the formation and professional practices of contemporary nurse; the third time was devoted to the description of the structure and organization of the nursing degree course offered in Sinop- MT. It was tried to identify the perception of teachers of this course on the educational dimension of the work of nurses from information obtained through the interviews with these teachers. The criteria for inclusion of teachers were their formation as nurses, permanent participation in the Faculty of the school of nursing of UFMT Sinop Campus, and their acceptances in participating in the search. The technique used for collecting data was the interview based on the screenplay with open-ended questions, directed to the characterization of the study subjects, as well as questions related to their formation and teaching practice. The interpretation of the data was based on the analysis of teacher professionalization process, designed by Antonio Novoa (1999), and in the design of "ethic of care", crafted from theoretical contributions of Edgar Morin (2007) and Leonardo Boff (1999). The results obtained indicate that the perception of teachers about the educational dimension of the nurses' work relates mainly to the design of health education, which now integrates the set of standards and ethical principles intrinsic to the profession of nurse.
