Health Support

Abstract Family Health Support Centres (NASFs, in Portuguese) aim to develop interprofessional practices anchored in the assumptions of Primary Health Care, guided by the criteria of shared care specific professional interventions, management processes, interdisciplinarity, intersectoriality, Continuing Education in Health and health promotion. This health management methodology (Matrix Support) still represents a challenge to workers and managers, as it switches the logic of clinical thought from individual-centred, ambulatory and disciplinary care to collective, territory and interdisciplinary care. This study might illustrate and allow sharing of experiences about a work management format for multidisciplinary teams in Primary Health Care. A partnership between the University and the state health department was established in order to elaborate a collaborative, educational and supportive action. We formed a group of workers in the target area (24 municipalities and 18 teams) who had a focus on Continuing Education in Health using Institutional Analysis as theoretical reference. The main goal of the action was to provide spaces to share experiences and learning in the perspective of Continuing Education in Health. How does Continuing Education in Health support interprofessional practices in the field of Collective Health? Among the main results, we list: reflection about organisation practices of multiprofessional work, reflection about care practices and clinic management in the technical-assistance and pedagogic perspectives of Matrix Support; encouragement to improve the services offered in this level of care and their relationship with other points of the network. This experience showed us the importance of three main aspects: Continuing Education in Health, as a strategy of critical analysis about work and workers; the partnership and integration between teaching and service; and interprofessional formation processes (necessary to NASF and Collective Health). Key messages Continuing Education in Health is a strategy to deal with challenges and possibilities of interprofessional practices in the field of Collective Health. Enabling experiences and providing spaces for health professionals to share experience and learning.

Data Collections

Objective: Currently, primary health care (PHC) is under-represented in health statistics due to the lack of a comprehensive PHC data collection. This research explores the utility of population health surveys to address questions relating to access to and use of PHC, using diabetes as an example. Methods: Drawing on published material relating to diabetes management, we developed a conceptual framework of access to and use of quality PHC. Using this framework we examined three recent population-based health surveys ? the 2001 National Health Survey, 2002?03 NSW Health Survey, and AusDiab ? to identify relevant information collection. Results: We identified seven domains comprising aspects of quality PHC for people with diabetes. For each domain we proposed associated indicators. In critiquing the three population health surveys in relation to these indicators, we identified strengths and weaknesses of the data collections. Conclusion: This approach could inform the development of questions and extension of population health surveys to provide a better understanding of access to and use of quality PHC in Australia. The additional information would complement other data collections with a communitybased perspective and contribute to the develop- ment of PHC policy.
