Educação permanente e a SESAI

: uma análise da política nacional de educação permanente no âmbito da secretaria especial de saúde indígena

Abstract

This work aims to characterize SESAI - MA organizationally and administratively, its territory and the insertion of its multidisciplinary teams to better understand the process of permanent education. Education has been abundantly the object of scientific studies and much is due to the need for the educational process to be effectively the path of the social evolution of a certain people, which in turn, the peoples always walk towards a collective and individual social well-being. Permanent education in Brazil has been developed as an ethical-politicalpedagogical process that, in a simpler way, is to improve the quality of service provided by improving the theoretical and practical knowledge of its workers applied specifically to their work realities. In the context of Permanent Health Education for indigenous workers, it is of fundamental importance that these pillars that conceptualize the educational process are guiding the development of Permanent Health Education strategies offered to SESAI indigenous workers. The research was carried out through a questionnaire and interview with semi-structured questions applied to indigenous people in the village and to non-indigenous nursing technicians, target audience of permanent education activities carried out by SESAI (Special Secretary for Indigenous Health), regarding the respect for the characteristics of the axes of permanent education in health. In the work it was verified that the DSEI (Special Sanitary District of Maranhão) is concerned with the knowledge of its staff, both white and Indian, and that SESAI respects the ethnic specificities of the indigenous people, certain that it needs to make further progress in this regard. The understanding of continuing education in this research is very interesting, as knowing about the respect for the ethnic specificities of indigenous workers is extremely important for different peoples.
