EMERGENCY OR MOBILE CARE SERVICE AS A MEDICAL TRAINING SCENARIO: POTENTIALITY AND CHALLENGES

Medical Training. Integrated health Community. SAMU.

The Community Integrated Living (VIC) appears as a proposal of an active methodology acting in the integration of the triad teaching-service-community, acting as something innovative in the process teaching learning. As this is a module of the medical course of the Multicampi School of Medical Sciences (EMCM), it provides the student with the opportunity to insert himself in several fields of the health system, besides promoting the integration between the university, managers and health workers. The following research seeks to identify the potentialities and challenges of the formative experience in pre-hospital care developed in the Mobile Emergency Care Service (SAMU) from the perspective of the student. This is a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive study that used as data both the experience of the researcher in SAMU and the reports of the students about the impact of the insertion of SAMU in their training. Four categories were created from the thematic analysis: "The moment in central SAMU consisted only of a conference"; "As we entered the service we became part of what was previously mere speculation"; "Every experience is valid for training, even if we do not achieve all expectations"; and "Teaching and learning are master springs of the same process", with which the students' talks were worked out.  The results achieved prove that VIC contributes to the strengthening of academic and professional training, besides allowing students to collaborate with the professionals of the service in which they are inserted, helping SAMU and EMCM-UFRN to remedy or minimize the weaknesses pointed out, guaranteeing a greater use of VIC by serving as a guideline for other training institutions that wish to implement this methodology in their curricula.
