Abstract:

Social media have been used in different contexts as a way to streamline the flow of data and information for decision making, contributing to the issue of knowledge production networks and expansion of communication channels to access to health services. This article describe the results of 16 Observatories of Information and Communication Technologies in Health Services - OTICS-RIO Network - by the Municipal Health Secretariat in Rio de Janeiro in supporting the integration of primary care, surveillance and health promotion. It is a descriptive case study. The results relate to support in employee training, dissemination of information, communication, training and information management in primary health care. This innovative form of communication in health, with very little cost to the Unified Health System (SUS), allowed the weekly work process of the teams of 193 primary health care units (APS) in blogs, whose total accesses reached the seven million mark in mid 2015. As prospects, the possibility of use of distance learning tools can assist in training processes and continuing education of professionals in the family health teams.
