Abstract

SCHUCK, Lara Monteiro; MARCANTONIO, Marta  and  FREITAS, Laura Garcia de. Participatory Community Pratices and Work Rearrangements:: Collective Reception of the Elderly. Psicol. pesq. [online]. 2017, vol.11, n.2, pp. 61-69. ISSN 1982-1247.  http://dx.doi.org/10.24879/2017001100100163.

The present experience report addresses a process of change of workflow for marking consultations of the elderly in a Basic Health Unit of the city of Porto Alegre (RS), arranging it as a mechanism for community participation, strengthening and collective appropriation of the health-disease process, as well as the policy of the Unified Health System (SUS). Based on the report of this experimentation, built on team discussions and at the Local Health Council, we seek to make visible and discuss potentials and obstacles in the proposal of collective spaces for emancipation in basic care, based on health needs.

Keywords : Community participation; Collective health; Primary health care; Health care reception; Comprehensive care for the elderly.
