Abstract:

In public health, blogs as tools of communication and dissemination of data have been widely used since the mid-2010. This study aimed to describe the implementation of the blog tool by the Family Health Teams (FHT) of the municipality of Rio de Janeiro, which had the support of a Network of Local Observatories of the Municipal Health Department, as a vehicle for communication and health information for managers, health professionals and the population of Rio de Janeiro. We opted for a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory approach, with the collection of data and information directly in the media objects, in addition to the literature review. In relation to total accesses made to the blogs of the Family Health Clinics and Municipal Health Centers, a total of almost seven million accesses were obtained. Finally, it should be emphasized that initiatives such as the blog network of FHT should be analyzed, disseminated and known more and more, in order to understand, among other factors, the predispositions of users, workers and managers regarding the availability of channels of interaction and communication between them, their scope and their significance. After all, the power of a network is directly related to the uses made of it.
