Inclusion of indigenous health with equity in care networks to para health

Abstract: 

The objective of this study was to verify health actions and services directed to the Guama Tocantins Indigenous Special Health District included in the Health Care Networks (RAS-Redes de Atenção à Saúde) of the state of Para,evaluating the perception of the coordinators of the health care networks as well as of the indigenous health managers of Para, on the implementation of these actions and services in the regional plans of the four RAS (stork, urgency and emergency, psychosocial and people with disabilities) seven health regions, which encompass the Guama-Tocantins DSEI. The study was developed based on a qualitative and descriptive research using content analysis, based on semi-structured interviews with the state actors involved in the implementation and implementation of RAS and the federal managers responsible for the indigenous health policy in the Sanitary District Indigenous Special (DSEI - Distrito Sanitário Especial Indígena) Guama - Tocantins (GUATOC) of the State of Para. The obtained results express the absence of actions and services that guarantee the equity of the access to the natives in the RAS. Thus, there is an urgent need to qualify professionals for health care that respects the ethnic and cultural aspects of these peoples and especially that there is integration between the RAS managers and the DSEI managers in the planning and implementation of the actions and services, continuity of care from basic care to medium and high complexity.
