Teamwork expressed in the practice of health professionals

Journal Title: Revista Eletronica de Enfermagem - Year 2012, Vol 14, Issue 1

Abstract

In this study, we propose to understand teamwork based on the practice of the professionals working in a health institution. A review was performed on the material produced by the Extended Research Community, comprised of clients, professionals, and managers of the Sofia Feldman Hospital. After collecting and transcribing the material, it was grouped according to similarity, which resulted in three empirical categories. It was evidenced that teamwork in health care expressed the values of the institution, the existence of room for dialogue, which promotes collective decision-making and autonomy, and the liability of the clients, professionals and managers in the health care process. It was also verified that the care is organized in a way that contributes to the process of professional development. In conclusion, teamwork is a consequence and determinant of practices permeated with patient-centered care and relationships that promote dialogue, strengthened by formative processes and favored by a collegial management practice
