0093/2024 - Vulnerabilidades mediando o encontro do Cuidado em Saúde: por uma agência interseccional. Vulnerabilities mediating the Health Care encounter: by an intersectional agency.
O presente ensaio articula os conceitos de Cuidado em Saúde e Interseccionalidade para suscitar reflexões sobre o encontro entre o/a trabalhador/a de saúde e aquelas que aqui denominamos uma Naná: uma mulher, negra, idosa e periférica, perfil historicamente vulnerabilizado ao longo da história brasileira. Considerando as argumentações que envolvem o conceito de Interseccionalidade e as diferentes vertentes acerca do Cuidado, observamos a necessidade de se ampliar o olhar sobre estas que buscam os serviços de saúde já atravessadas por suas histórias de vida, e ponderar sobre os atravessamentos que seu perfil pode acionar em quem exerce o Cuidado. Aponta ser primordial uma agência interseccional por parte das/os agentes deste encontro, Nanás e profissionais de saúde, para que se concretizem os princípios de integralidade e equidade no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS).
Palavras-chave:
vulnerabilidade em saúde; cuidados de saúde; interseccionalidade; determinantes sociais da saúde.
Abstract:
This essay elucidates the notions of Health Care and Intersectionality to prompt contemplation on the interaction between healthcare professionals and individuals referred to here as Nanás: elderly, poor, and Black women, who represent a historically marginalized demographic throughout Brazilian history. By delving into the arguments about the concept of Intersectionality and the multifaceted dimensions of Care, it becomes apparent that there is a pressing need to broaden the perspective on women who access healthcare services, as they are inherently shaped by their life experiences. Moreover, it is imperative to acknowledge how the intersecting factors inherent in their profiles can influence the approach taken by those providing Care. This underscores the essentiality of an intersectional agency on the part of the agents involved in this encounter, namely the Nanás and healthcare workers, to effectively uphold the principles of integrality and equity within the Unified Health System (SUS).
Keywords:
health vulnerability; delivery of health care; intersectional framework; social determinants of health.
