Resumo: | Objective: To analyze the perceptions of community health workers (ACS) and users over the actions proposed in the Family Health Program (PSF) to improve the quality of life of a given population. Methods: This was a descriptive research with a qualitative approach, developed with nine family health teams in the city of Passos-MG, Brazil, which were defined by drawing lots among the seventeen teams in the city. The target population was composed of community health workers and users of the PSF, the sample was selected using simple random sampling, and consisted of eighteen ACS and eighteen users. Data collection took place from July to September 2009, employing a semi-structured interview. The discussions were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: From the analysis of the speeches it was evident that quality of life is a construct with different meanings and that the family health team, in a perspective to enable the establishment and improvement of people’s quality of life, must develop actions over factors that limit the development of a life with quality. However, the family health team still focuses its actions on curative aspects in detriment of health promotion actions that are essential to improving the quality of life. Final considerations: The staff of the family health team, in the perception of the subjects of this study, still develops few activities that create conditions for people to have a better quality of life. |

Métodos: Tratou-se de investigação descritiva com abordagem qualitativa, desenvolvida em nove equipes de Saúde da Família da cidade de Passos-MG, Brasil, definidas através de sorteio dentre as dezessete equipes existentes no município. A população alvo foi composta pelos ACS e usuários do PSF, a amostra foi selecionada utilizando-se a amostragem aleatória simples, e se constituiu por dezoito ACS e dezoito usuários. A coleta de informações se deu no período de julho a setembro de 2009, empregando-se a entrevista semiestruturada. As falas foram analisadas utilizando-se a análise temática. Resultados: A partir da análise das falas ficou evidente que qualidade de vida é um construto com diferentes significados e que a equipe de Saúde da Família, em uma perspectiva de possibilitar o estabelecimento e a melhoria da qualidade de vida das pessoas, deve desenvolver ações sobre os limitantes ao desenvolvimento de uma vida com qualidade. No entanto, a equipe de Saúde da Família ainda focaliza suas ações no aspecto curativo em detrimento das ações de promoção à saúde, essenciais para a melhoria da qualidade de vida. Considerações Finais: A equipe de Saúde da Família, na percepção dos sujeitos desse estudo, ainda desenvolve poucas atividades que propiciam às pessoas condições para terem uma melhor qualidade de vida.Universidade de Fortaleza2012-01-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/207610.5020/2076Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 24 No. 3 (2011); 228-237Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 24 Núm. 3 (2011); 228-237Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 24 n. 3 (2011); 228-2371806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/2076/2369Maia, Maria Ambrosina CardosoSantos, Jaqueline Silvainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-01-20T21:54:49Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/2076Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2012-01-20T21:54:49Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false |
