Abstract
TRUJILLO HOYOS, Mónica; CARDENAS VELASQUEZ, Nairoby and RESTREPO AVENDANO, Sara Lorena. Methodological route for interdisciplinary practices integrated in Primary Health Care. Rev. Univ. Ind. Santander. Salud [online]. 2023, vol.55, e26. Epub Nov 26, 2023. ISSN 0121-0807. https://doi.org/10.18273/saluduis.55.e:23019.
Introduction:
Interdisciplinary training within the framework of primary health care (PHC) allows the opening to new knowledge, a comprehensive approach to complex realities in the territories and the articulation among actors. This enables better results both for the communities in the resolution of their needs and problems and for the professionals who link the concept and practice of PHC to their training.
Objective:
To design a methodological route for the implementation of integrated interdisciplinary practices with a territorial approach, within the PHC framework.
Methodology:
It is a social interaction project, qualitative, based on the postulates of the critical social paradigm and under the premises of popular education and participatory action, whose development process was framed in the collective construction with students and professors of the different participating academic units, as well as with social, community, institutional and political leaders of the linked territories. For this reason, the construction of the route privileges their participation horizontally in each of the moments of the project: diagnosis, systematization and validation.
Results:
a methodological route was created in 4 phases: preparation, planning, execution and evaluation, each with different moments.
Discussion:
Although no other references of methodological routes of integrated interdisciplinary practices were found, the discussion focuses on the concepts of health education, PHC and interdisciplinarity and their implications both for training processes and for the interdisciplinary approach to the needs in the territories.
Conclusions:
The co-management of community and institutional actors of the territories and the University are crucial to develop training purposes and contribute to the resolution of prioritized needs and problems within the framework of PHC; understanding the community as a subject of accompaniment through integrated interdisciplinary practices and not as an object of intervention to achieve training purposes.
