Perceptions of Professionals from the Multidisciplinary Team Faced with the Discontinuation of NASF-AB in Cycle 2019 – 2021

Abstract

The research in question aims to evaluate the perceptions of professionals working in the multidisciplinary team in the face of the weakening and consequent discontinuation of the NASF-AB in the city of Iracema/Ceará as a result of the Technical Note N° 3/2020 and Ordinance N° 2.979. This is a qualitative study using semi-structured interviews as a collection instrument and relying on discourse analysis as a data processing method. The writing had 07 respondents linked to the 06 UBSs located in the respective territory, being developed from 2019 to 2021. The participation of professionals in turn was valid or discarded through the inclusion and exclusion criteria, which were respectively: employment and performance at NASF-AB in the period defined for analysis, as well as the absence of the professional in the territory during that period. It is important to mention the lack of specialized mental health care devices in Iracema, like as CAPSs, culminating in an even more delicate scenario regarding psychosocial care in the city. The results obtained showed the great importance of the service in the territory, as well as the emergence of problems in the daily routine of primary care with the scrapping of NASF-AB, including the weakening of construction and case evaluation practices, as well as the emphasis on outpatient care about collective practices.
