Performance in external field

experience report of a resident in Collective Health

Abstract

When it comes to qualifications, based on practical reality, professionals are directly in contact with daily health work. For the development of this study, we opted for a methodological design characterized as descriptive, of the experience report type. Action research is part of this line, as it associates research with action/practice, to describe the experience of a resident in public health, as well as their performance in a field outside the municipality of Uberlândia. During my experience, in primary care, it was possible to understand the work process and identify how nursing care was being designed. The experience in these fields of practice provided me with a dynamic and pioneering experience, as it gave me an enriching, pleasurable, and stimulating performance. It is essential to build emotional and trusting bonds, as countless life stories, individual, collective, and familiar, are intertwined with our practice, considering the occurrence of those served, seeking out residents not only to treat the problems covered by each specialty but to seek advice, overcome everyday difficulties and invest in health promotion.
