A intervenção do enfermeiro na comunidade tem, entre outros, o objetivo de promover estilos de vida saudáveis, a literacia em saúde e contribuir para ambientes promotores de saúde e preventivos da doença. O envelhecimento da população é uma realidade em toda a Europa e em Portugal está associado a menos anos de vida saudáveis sendo primordial investir em políticas de saúde promotoras do envelhecimento ativo e saudável. A população idosa é um grupo de risco para acidentes e agudização de doenças que levam à necessidade de primeiros socorros. São as testemunhas mais frequentes de situações de emergência e têm menos conhecimentos em primeiros socorros e menos acesso à formação. No estágio, realizado na Unidade de Saúde Pública Arnaldo Sampaio, foi desenvolvido o projeto de intervenção “Literacia em primeiros socorros: Capacitar a comunidade sénior para agir”, baseado na metodologia do planeamento em saúde. O referencial teórico que o suportou foi o Modelo de Promoção de Saúde de Nola Pender. Todas as fases do processo de planeamento contaram com a participação ativa do grupo-alvo, tendo sido realizado um diagnóstico de situação do qual emergiram como problemas prioritários o deficit de conhecimento em primeiros socorros e a autoeficácia comprometida. Foi definido como objetivo geral contribuir para a capacitação do grupo de séniores para intervirem de forma adequada em situação de primeiros socorros e suporte básico de vida, no período de 5 de setembro a 16 de dezembro de 2022. Foram definidos objetivos específicos, com metas e indicadores. Foi utilizada a estratégia educacional e o estabelecimento de parcerias na comunidade tendo sido realizadas inúmeras atividades das quais se destacam as sessões de educação da saúde, a construção de um e-book e a divulgação do projeto na comunidade e na equipa da USPAS, promovendo a sua continuidade. Os resultados da avaliação são positivos, as metas propostas foram alcançadas e houve uma melhoria clara dos conhecimentos do grupo e da promoção da autoeficácia face a uma situação que necessite de primeiros socorros O percurso de estágio permitiu desenvolver competências de enfermeiro especialista em Enfermagem Comunitária e de Saúde Pública e de mestre.
The nurse's intervention in the community has, among others, the purpose of promoting healthy lifestyles, health literacy, and contributing to health-promoting and disease-preventive environments. Population ageing is a reality throughout Europe, and, in Portugal, it is associated with fewer healthy life years, making it essential to invest in health policies that promote active and healthy ageing. The elderly population is a risk group for accidents and aggravation of diseases that lead to the need for first aid. They are the most frequent witnesses of emergency situations and have less knowledge in first aid and less access to training. During the internship, carried out at the Arnaldo Sampaio Public Health Unit, the intervention project "First Aid Literacy: Empowering the senior community to act" was developed, based on the health planning methodology. The main theoretical framework that supported it was Nola Pender's Health Promotion Model. All phases of the planning process counted on the active participation of the target group, and a diagnosis of the situation was made, from which the deficit of knowledge in first aid and compromised self-efficacy emerged as priority problems. The general objective was defined as to contribute to the training of the senior citizens group to adequately intervene in first aid and basic life support situations, during the period from 5 September to 16 December 2022. Specific objectives were defined, with targets and indicators. The educational strategy and the establishment of community partnerships were used, and numerous activities were carried out, including health education sessions, the construction of an e-book and the dissemination of the project in the community and in the USPAS team, promoting its continuity. The evaluation results are positive, the proposed goals were achieved and there was a clear improvement in the group's knowledge and promotion of self-efficacy in the face of a situation requiring first aid. The internship allowed the development of competencies as a nurse specialist in Community Nursing and Public Health and as a Master's student.
