ABSTRACT
Objective:
to analyze the implications of the Care Network for the Disabled Person with Disabilities within the Unified Health System.
Method:
it is a reflection study based on recent policies and literature related to the theme.
Results:
the structural changes change the care flow, as well as point out abilities for the professionals who work in the care points. The articulation of these care points is considered the principle for the system to function in an integrated way, in order to ensure the comprehensiveness of the care provided for people with disabilities. On the other hand, in the fields of practice, the persistent disarticulation of these components is still observed because they are limited to caring for people with disabilities in their own areas of activity. It was based on the National Policy on the Health of People with Disabilities, guiding the institutional and home rehabilitation actions, which assures these people access to comprehensive, interdisciplinary and intersectoral care and assistance, essential to the process of rehabilitation and social inclusion.
Conclusion:
it is concluded that this reflection represents a contribution so that the professionals who work in the area are better guided regarding their competencies, responsibilities and fundamental actions with the users of the network.
