Percepção dos profissionais de saúde e acompanhantes dos estudantes em regime de internação hospitalar sobre as práticas pedagógicas desenvolvidas no HUPAA

Abstract

undergoing health treatment during the hospitalization process, the figure of the Hospital Class teacher has emerged. The proposal to carry out pedagogical practices in a hospital context involves multifaceted and essential knowledge to ensure that hospitalization does not interrupt the educational, social and emotional development of students undergoing health treatment. Based on an integral and humanized approach, the development of pedagogical practices in hospital environments requires the collaboration and perception of various actors, especially health professionals and the students' companions. This research aims to investigate the perceptions of healthcare professionals and those accompanying students undergoing treatment about the pedagogical practices developed at the Professor Alberto Antunes University Hospital (HUPAA). This is a qualitative case study. The theoretical basis includes studies by Mattos and Mugiatti (2012), Souza (2009), Almeida and Albinati (2009), as well as dissertations, theses, articles and relevant documentary sources on the subject. Data collection took place in the HUPAA's pediatric ward, and the methodological procedures included semi-structured interviews with health professionals and carers, observation of pedagogical practices and recording in the researcher's field diary. The research was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Alagoas, under CAEE No. 58233622.0.0000.5013. The results show that both healthcare professionals (HC) and carers (HC) perceive the importance of hospital pedagogical practices for the emotional well-being and learning continuity of hospitalized children and students. This study contributes to the debate on the urgency of public policies that guarantee the right to education for students undergoing health treatment and the need to carry out pedagogical practices in a hospital context, based on a holistic and humanized approach to education in hospital environments, strengthening the interrelationship between teachers, students, carers and health professionals.
