0101/2021 - ESTRATÉGIA DE SAÚDE DA FAMÍLIA E IDOSO COM DEMÊNCIA: o cuidado pelos profissionais de saúde FAMILY HEALTH STRATEGY AND ELDERLY WITH DEMENTIA: care by health professionals
Estudo qualitativo descritivo-analítico desenvolvido em um setor de atenção primária à saúde organizada pela ESF. Realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com cinco profissionais de saúde: dois médicos, uma enfermeira e dois agentes comunitários de saúde (ACS). Tópicos norteadores da entrevista: dados sobre o entrevistado; atendimento ao idoso; atenção aos familiares; percepção acerca de vivência de situações-limite no acompanhamento do idoso; e dificuldades encontradas na ESF para a assistência do idoso. Representações acerca dos profissionais da ESF estão diretamente relacionadas ao cargo exercido. Os ACS são descritos como o termômetro e os olhos da unidade. Os médicos se percebem com uma demanda grande e como detentores do saber biomédico e prescritores de medicação. A enfermagem como o profissional mediador entre ACS e médico. As demandas espontâneas dos idosos e familiares continuam sustentadas no tripé: médico, equipamentos e medicamentos. As dificuldades do familiar em compreender a demência, a percepção do cuidado como um peso e as limitações socioeconômicas foram aspectos descritos como intensificadores do processo demencial. A criação de vínculo entre os profissionais, familiares e idosos, foi percebido como um dispositivo emocional de cuidado em saúde fundamental para o acompanhamento dos casos de demência.

Abstract:
Qualitative descriptive-analytical study developed in a primary health care unit organized by the ESF. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with five health professionals: two doctors, a nurse and two health agents (ACS). Guiding topics of the interview: data on the interviewee; elderly care; attention to family members; perception of the experience of limit situations in the monitoring of the elderly; and difficulties encountered in the ESF to assist the elderly. Representations related to ESF professionals are directly related to the exercise of work. The ACS are ed as the unit\'s thermometer and eyes. Doctors perceive a great demand and as holders of the biomedical saber and prescribers of medication. Nursing as a professional mediator between CHA and doctor. The spontaneous demands of the elderly and their families continue to be sustained without a tripod: doctor, equipment and medication. As family difficulties comprise dementia, the perception of care as a burden and socioeconomic permissions were aspects that affect intensifiers of the dementia process. The creation of a bond between professionals, family members and the elderly, was perceived as an emotional health care device fundamental for the monitoring of dementia cases.
