The multidisciplinary Residences represent a resistance model of academic training in specialized format, where the fragmentation of knowledge and the vision of illness are perceived as a strictly biological phenomenon. This model of operate and interdisciplinary training proposed the construction of collective knowledge embedded in the same field of work, with activities in service, prioritizing and respecting the characteristic of core science of each profession B R AS I L, 2 0 0 6 The objective of this study is to talk about the performance
possibilities of professional nutritionist in Primary Health Care (APS) in the context of
residence. I wonder a nd I invite everyone to ponder: the nutritionists see their possibilities of
action in the APS that contribute to consolidation and strengthening of the Unified Health
System (SUS), and as a supporter member of Health Personnel Strategy family (EqESF)
unde r the Support Center for family Health (NASF) and facilitator of nutrition education?
This is a case study on the characterization of the performance of a Nutritionist in APS from
the experiences and insights made possible by the path RMSFC. This gave me g reat learning
and multidisciplinary exchanges, as well as interdisciplinary with other residents. I point out
the steps that I make during the process of territorialization, participatory planning, planning
and organization of work and life experiences and exchange with all participants in the Basic
Health Units (UBS) where I worked. Given such experiences, i bring critical reflection about
the presence and action of the nutritionist in the APS within its central role as supporter and
facilitator of QuEST n utrition education is of great importance. At some point, I wish to refer
to correct and incorrect practice or serve as an ideal role model, but rather to generate
discussion about the formation of a Nutritionist for APS and how each professional can
organ ize work processes from the praxis service. Added to this the possibility to discuss the
role of the nutritionist in training RMSFC for APS, its main contributions and nuances that
permeate professional practice within the reality of this formative space. So, it noticeable the
urgent need for discussions about lineup Nutritionist for the SUS and for conducting nutrition
education, as opposed to technical training, based on the cure, treatment of diseases,
prescription diet, lack of skilled listening and dia logue with professionals of health. How too,
it is necessary to strengthen the multisectoral and intersectoral work in order to get
comprehensive care.
