Resumo: ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to investigate how professionals in family health teams view what dieticians do in practice and in theory. The study was done in Family Healthcare Units of a municipality in the state of São Paulo. MethodsThe qualitative methodology was used on 27 deliberately chosen professionals. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data. Thematic analysis and the Social Representation Theory were used for data interpretation. ResultsFour themes emerged from the analysis: dietician in the family health strategy; family health team’s approach to dietary issues; nutrition education; and problematizing the absence of a dietician in the family health team. Dieticians were mainly viewed as individuals who prescribe diets. Nevertheless, the interviewees proved to have good knowledge about dieticians’ functions and attributions. The importance of nutrition education for the promotion of healthy food practices was beyond doubt, even though the interviewees’ views on the theme were superficial and poorly grounded. ConclusionThe absence of a dietician in the family health team was attributed to the following factors: low social recognition, professional devaluation, relatively new profession, unfamiliarity with the core competence of the dietician and maintenance of the hegemonic medical model. In conclusion, more studies are necessary to problematize the insertion of dieticians in family health teams.

A pesquisa foi realizada em Unidades de Saúde da Família de um município do estado de São Paulo. MétodosFoi utilizada a metodologia qualitativa, tendo como sujeitos 27 profissionais, eleitos por critério intencional. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas. Para a interpretação dos dados, utilizou-se a análise categorial temática, apropriando-se da Teoria das Representações Sociais. ResultadosComo resultados, emergiram quatro temas: Nutricionista na Estratégia de Saúde da Família, Abordagem de questões alimentares pelos profissionais da equipe de saúde da família, Educação nutricional e Problematizando a ausência do nutricionista na equipe de saúde da família. As principais representações obtidas com relação ao nutricionista foram relacionadas à prescrição de dietas, além de revelarem um conhecimento mais amplo sobre as funções e atribuições desse profissional. Não houve dúvidas sobre a importância da educação nutricional na promoção de práticas alimentares saudáveis, apesar de os sujeitos terem demonstrado uma visão superficial e pouco abalizada teoricamente sobre o tema. ConclusãoA ausência do nutricionista na equipe de saúde da família foi atribuída a fatores como o baixo reconhecimento social, a desvalorização profissional, o pouco tempo de existência da profissão, o desconhecimento do núcleo de competência do nutricionista e a manutenção do modelo médico hegemônico. Concluiu-se pela necessidade de mais estudos que problematizem a inserção do nutricionista em equipes de saúde da família.Núcleo de Editoração – PUC-Campinas2023-08-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9229Brazilian Journal of Nutrition; Vol. 25 No. 1 (2012): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; Vol. 25 Núm. 1 (2012): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; v. 25 n. 1 (2012): Revista de Nutrição1678-9865reponame:Revista de Nutriçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9229/6606Copyright (c) 2023 Ana Cristina do Amaral CAMOSSA, Rodolpho TELAROLLI JUNIOR, Maria Lúcia Teixeira MACHADOhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessdo Amaral CAMOSSA, Ana Cristina TELAROLLI JUNIOR, Rodolpho Teixeira MACHADO, Maria Lúcia 2023-11-30T12:43:12Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/9229Revistahttp://www.scielo.br/rnPRIhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/oai||sbi.submissionrn@puc-campinas.edu.br1678-98651415-5273opendoar:2023-11-30T12:43:12Revista de Nutrição - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
