Resumo:
Objetivou-se compreender os sentidos que agentes comunitários atribuem à visita domiciliária realizada junto a famílias com idosos frágeis e se esta tecnologia do trabalho tem servido como uma ferramenta de Cuidado a este grupo. Foram realizadas entrevistas, guiadas por roteiro semiestruturado, a agentes comunitários do município de Bambuí/MG. Todas foram gravadas, transcritas e analisadas. O modelo Signos, Significados e Ações guiou a coleta e análise dos dados. Em suas maneiras de pensar e agir, percebendo a velhice, inexoravelmente associada à incapacidade, as agentes “tentam ajudar” pessoas que vivenciam um contexto sociocultural similar ao seu a ter acesso ao serviço de saúde. Como não recebem orientações para atuar junto às famílias com idosos, intuitivamente estabelecem critérios “equitativos” ancorados em uma dimensão solidária, visitando mais os grupos de risco (“o idoso”, “o carente”, “o doente”, “o pobre”). A visita ocorre em resposta a demandas imediatas destes grupos, mas o foco da atenção permanece pautado na doença e na oferta de insumos e procedimentos. A desejada reorientação do modelo assistencial, a implementação da Política Nacional de Saúde da Pessoa Idosa e ações específicas de cuidado às famílias com idosos frágeis não são notadas.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to understand the meanings that the community health agents attribute to the home visit conducted with families with frail elderly and if this technology work has served as a tool for care for this population. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with community agents in the city of Bambui/MG, which were recorded, transcribed and analyzed. The model of signs, meanings and actions guided the collection and analysis of data. In their ways of thinking and acting, realizing aging inexorably associated with disability, the agents "try to help" people who experience sociocultural context similar to yours to have access to health services. How not receive guidelines for work with families with elderly, intuitively establish "equitable" criteria anchored in a solidarity and relational dimension that allow them to visit more risk groups ("elderly", "the needy", "sick", "the poor"). The visit comes in response to immediate demands of users to monitor these groups, but the focus of attention remains grounded in sickness and in supply of inputs and procedures. The desired reorientation of care model, the implementation of the National Health Policy for the Elderly and specific actions of care to families with frail elderly are not noticed.
