International nurses day 2004 : working with the poor - against poverty
Authors: Cruz Isabel Cristina Fonseca da
Published: July 2022

Message from ICNDear Colleagues,Poverty is the greatest misery we face today. This is why ICN has chosen to focus on poverty for this year’sINDtheme. Some 1.2 billion people are living in extreme poverty; that is, on less than $1 a day. This means they lack the basic necessities for a healthy life -- adequate food, water, clothing, shelter and health care. Additionally, up to 2.8 billion people are living on less than $2 a day.Poverty and poor health go hand-in-hand, with the poor sharing an unequal burden of ill health. The poorest 1.2 billion people bear two-thirds of the world’s communicable disease, maternal and perinatal mortality, and nutritional deficiencies. The particular cruelty of poverty is its vicious circle, whereby people do not have access to health, education and other means to increase their income and to improve their health status. Yet without good health, a person’s potential to escape from poverty is severely weakened.What can we as nurses do?  We know that investing in education, health care and sound social policy can improve health outcomes. We also know that health is an asset, thus promoting and protecting it must be a key concern. This means that we must be sure we are educated about the determinants of health, about empowerment, and about working with communities and vulnerable groups to address their unique needs.We can work to ensure the poor are treated with respect, and work to influence policies and programmes, ensuring they are designed with the poor and most vulnerable in mind. We can lobby for fair labour standards, safe work places, equal rights for women (who represent 70 per cent of the most poor), and lobby to ensure equity of access to health services.Nurses are the most trusted of health professions. We can do much to work with and on behalf of poor people. We work with them to ensure that their voices are heard, that they are included in decisions concerning them, and that the inequalities of access, employment, services, gender, ethnicity and race are addressed. Working side-by-side with clients, service providers, community leaders, policy makers and politicians we can do our part to reduce the plague of poverty.Sincerely,        Christine Hancock                     Judith A. Oulton        President                                  Chief Executive Officer

The current area of ethics is composed by philosophy, ethics, and bioethics, and remains loyal to the founder’s, Glete de Alcântara, principles. Such reflection is important inasmuch as Ethics is the foundation for professional posture, and Bioethics grants the development of critical vision over the plurality of values that involve Health relations.

An important discussion is found in the international literature about the forms of knowing that are specific to nursing. The work that obtained the biggest repercussion in this area is the one by Carper, which proposes four patterns of knowledge: empirical, ethical, esthetical and personal.

Authors: Zanchetta Margareth S. , Leite Ligia Costa , Perreault Michel , Lefebvre Hélène
Published: July 2022

This inquiry explored the educative actions of Community health agents (CHAs) with socially disaffiliated populations in a Rio de Janeiro metropolitan area. Individual and group interviews, participant observation during visits to the shantytowns, and picture gathering apprehended the philosophical and empirical dimensions of such actions. The software ATLAS ti. 4.2 supported the coding procedures of the raw material. Abduction in communication framed findings’ analysis and interpretation. Analysis revealed their social professional identity, political awareness regarding their own organization as a professional group, plus criticisms regarding the negligence of occupational safety and the lack of governmental help. CHAs “voice” is a tool of social leadership and a main facilitator to empower the population, and to promote optimization of the health care system. Since their professional practice revealed conflicts, contradictions and paradoxes, it seems necessary a collective reflection on the needed support to sustain CHAs wishes for change and freedom to act.
Demands of the emergency services and the work process in open-door services.
Authors: Marques Giselda Q.
Published: July 2022

This study is aimed at identifying and analyzing users’ demands to emergency services of a Health Center, as well as examining the organization of work in that service, identifying how users’ access to, acceptance by and bond to the Health system takes place. It is a case study of qualitative approach. Data collection was carried out as free observation by time sampling. Observation focus was on the organization of the work process and on care given to users that obtained some kind of attention at the Emergency Service. Data analysis was based on a dialectic approach. Data obtained were classified in relevance structures and later grouped in two sets: Demands to the emergency services; work organization and use of light technologies. Work process in emergency services is organized in order to meet some of the population’s health needs, responding as much as possible to the aim of treating the main complaint, refering the user, when necessary, to references of distinct complexity levels regulated in the Heath System’s hierarchy. Acceptance is present in the actions of professionals, but it is still little explored as a strategy to widen access and bond to the System. The main reasons for users to seek the service were: serious situations and risk situations, acute complaints that involved physical and emotional discomfort, specific needs characterized as non-urgent, complementary care regarding that received in other health services and the bond to the service itself. It has been demonstrated that users see the search for a good service differently from what workers see. The former seeks emergency services to solve problems that bring them difficulty and discomfort; to the latter, users’ needs are defined based on the biological model and the System’s organization.

Health services organization according to the intersectoral perspective: a review
Authors: Sousa Francisca Georgina Macêdo de , Terra Marlene Gomes , Erdmann Alacoque Lorenzini
Published: July 2022

This text presents some reflections upon organizing, programming and structuring health services, according to the perspective that involves the challenges of an intersectoral practice, based upon the comprehension of the concept of health in the scenarios of health care practice. Health care is understood here as its amplified concept of quality of life. There is a consensus that the current care model, beyond its exclusive characteristic, presents a low impact upon the health care problems and the quality of life of society. Therefore, we look to base this study upon the work of authors who have amplified the strategic vision of organizing health care services in order to make such discussion the object of this study. Intersectoral practice, however, as an organizational strategy, looks to overcome policy fragmentation upon considering the human being in its entirety and its complexity.
