Habilidades de comunicação em saúde na assistência às mulheres em situação de violência: construção de cartilha educativa para profissionais de saúde

Abstract

Violence is considered a widespread social phenomenon in countries around the world, and can be observed in several different cultures and social classes. Understood as a public health problem, it can be characterized by several types, including gender violence, in which most of the victims are women. In this context, the practice of health professionals is considered important in assisting women victims of violence who seek the different spaces of the Unified Health System. In this sense, the present work aims to build an educational booklet about communication skills for health professionals when assisting women victims of violence. The present study can be defined as methodological, focusing on the development and improvement of an instrument and methodological strategy of educational material (booklet) about communication skills for health professionals who assist women in situations of violence. This study was composed of two stages, being the bibliographic survey the first and the development and elaboration of the booklet the second stage. For the design of the material, we used the slidesgo site (2023), belonging to the Freepik Company platform (Copyright). The final version of the booklet has twenty-five pages, with cover, back cover, presentation, summary, and references. However, it is evident the importance of educational materials as a strategy to promote continuing education in health, assisting in the most appropriate preparation of professionals who are faced with delicate and difficult to handle cases, such as gender violence.
