Analysis of interprofessional in-service education in a psychosocial care center

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the interprofessional in-service education from the point of view of workers from a Psychosocial Care Center. It is part of the research study “Qualitative Evaluation of the Mental Health Services Network for Crack Users (ViaREDE),” whose methodological approach was the Fourth Generation Evaluation. The evaluation process provided reflections on interprofessional education based on the Integrated Multiprofessional Health Residency from the point of view of the Psychosocial Care Center’s workers. The study showed residencies are important strategies for the development of interprofessional work in healthcare, contributing to permanent education actions and the creation of change processes in care practices. However, they still experience challenges in the micropolitical dimension between workers and residents.
