Interprofessional qualification of prenatal care in the context of primary health care

Abstract

This study aims to describe and analyze an interprofessional educational intervention for the qualification of prenatal care in the context of primary health care. Method: action-research comprising a prenatal care qualification course with 65 primary health care professionals. Collaborative learning activities were conducted in synchronous and asynchronous meetings. Results: the reflexive thematic analysis of participants’ experiences, views and perceptions on the meanings of the intervention revealed three categories: quality of prenatal care: conceptions and meanings; collaborative learning: strategy to overcome linear and isolated care; the need to evolve from acting locally to thinking globally. Conclusion: the analysis of the interprofessional educational intervention for the qualification of prenatal care in the context of primary health care showed that constructivist, participatory and interprofessional approaches are relevant and pertinent to broaden theoretical perceptions and give new meanings to the work process at different settings of the health network.
