Abstract:

Offering Integrative and Complementary Practices in the Health Care System is stimulated to increase the comprehensiveness of care and the access to them, but it is challenging to incorporate ICP into the health services. Our goal is to provide a method of implementation of ICP in Primary Health Care, derived from analysis of municipalities’ experiences, using partial results of a master’s thesis that used the action research methodology. The method involves four stages: 1 - defining a group responsible for the implementation and its solidification; 2 - situational analysis, mapping the existing competent professionals 3 - regulation, organization of access and legitimacy, and 4 - cycle of deployment: local plan arrangements, mentoring and continuing education activities in health. The phases are described, justified and briefly discussed. The method encourages the development of rational and sustainable actions, participatory management, construction and expansion of care provided at Primary Health Care by offering progressive and sustainable Integrative and Complementary Practices.
