Educação Interprofissional na área da saúde no ensino superior: uma revisão integrativa de literatura

Abstract

The current article proposes to verify the academic production on the interprofessional education in the area of health, in higher education. For this purpose, it constituted by an integrative bibliographic review, executed from the periodicals portal from CAPES and SCIELO. As a theoretical milestone, we adopted authors who bring the concepts of interprofessionality and the potentials and difficulties of the interprofessional formation, which throughout the text are converted in categories analysis. The dialogue is incorporated in the texts of the Federal Constitution of 1988, the World Health Organization (WHO) and of the National Health Promotion Program. Thus, the qualitative analysis of the results of the research and selection process, after the articles reading made it possible to categorize the dialogue with the objective of the research: interprofessionality/collaborative practices and potentials and difficulties of the interprofessional formation. The results point to the viability of the realization of interprofessional education as well as the permanent education of all the authors involved in the process.
