Competências técnicas e comportamentais do enfermeiro preceptor em uma unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal de um hospital público de Alagoas

Abstract

Within the context of preceptorship, characterized as in-service education aimed at training professionals in practical settings, the preceptor plays pivotal roles. They are not only responsible for imparting knowledge from their daily experiences but also for overseeing and guiding students in their professional development. The Academic Completion Work (TACC) of the Professional Master's in Health Education, affiliated with the Medical School of the Federal University of Alagoas, is structured in two primary facets: the drafting of a scientific paper and the creation of a technical educational product. The article titled "Technical and Behavioral Competencies of the Nurse Preceptor in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of a Public Hospital in Alagoas" centers on analyzing the performance of such competencies in a public Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. This research, of an exploratory, qualitative, and descriptive nature, relied on data collected from a sample of 30 preceptors from the Neonatal ICU of a Teaching Maternity Hospital, conducted through a tool consisting of three key questions. Additionally, an animated educational video titled "Preceptorship in Neo I will talk" was developed, available on the YouTube platform at the link https://youtu.be/9LhtWEREe2c, which subsequently underwent a validation process, leading to the publication of a specific article on the subject. The core aim of this work is to provide a significant contribution to practical education, spurring reflections on preceptorship and assessing the technical and behavioral performance of nurse preceptors in neonatal settings.
