SUMMARY:

Suicide refers to a human act to end life, with the intentionality of death. It is a complex phenomenon that is growing all over the world, most situations could be avoided. Therefore, the objective of this study is to evaluate attitudes and knowledge about suicide in Primary Care professionals. It is a research of quantitative nature and cross-sectional design carried out in two cities in the interior of Rio Grande do Norte, Caicó and Currais Novos. A total of 140 professionals from the Family Health Strategy participated in the study, of which 107 were CHWs, 19 nurses, 2 doctors, 2 nursing technicians, 3 physical educators, 4 social workers and 3 psychologists. The results showed that higher-level professionals presented more positive attitudes when compared to high school professionals. Practitioners who have had contact with people with suicidal ideation or who have committed suicide also showed attitudes that are more positive. The rate of correct answers in knowledge / clinical skills questionnaires for suicide prevention was low. There were no differences between the levels of professional training in the rates of correct answers on suicide questions. Therefore, it is important to think about and evaluate regional issues for the proper development of Primary Care professionals in relation to patient management.
