Abstract:

This article discusses the meanings given to the guideline of differentiated attention by health professionalsthe Multidisciplinary Team for Indigenous Health (EMSI) who work at the DSEI-ARN. This is an exploratory qualitative study with a descriptive and analytical nature, in which 15 semi-structured interviews were carried out with professionalsthe Multidisciplinary Teams of Indigenous Health of the DSEI-ARN and were submitted to content analysis. As a result, we discuss four themes: a) Differentiated healthcare as a way of providing primary care in the territory; b) Health action according to the cultural differences of the population; c) Self-care, traditional medicine and the construction of therapeutic itineraries; and d) Challenges and difficulties in dealing with traditional healthcare. In the professionals\' perception, differentiated healthcare is linked to the conditions for carrying out work in this type of primary care, and for their performance they refer to the need to respect the cultural differences of the indigenous population. Professionals recognize the uses and effectiveness of indigenous practices and knowledge, and the specificities by region. However, they report difficulties and lack of support to implement a better quality of differentiated healthcare.
