Abstract:

This work is part of a dissertation at the Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Brasilia, originated from a national study and aimed to understand the difficulties and potential to overcome the challenges to improving food and nutrition actions developed in the Health Strategy Family, through the eyes of professional teams of the Family Health Strategy and Support Center for Family Health of five large brazilian cities. Qualitative approach was used to design multiple cases and the technique of focus groups to collect data. The instrument used was a semi-structured pre-tested and validated with two guiding questions. For data analysis, we used the technique of the Collective Subject Discourse, by which the speeches were built-synthesis with the aid of the program Qualiquantisoft. We interviewed 60 health professionals from various areas of training, including dietitians, nurses and doctors. The results showed that the difficulties encountered for the provision of food and nutrition actions and lack of professionals in this area have limited compliance with the principles of comprehensiveness, universality and solvability of health care.
