O que é ser residente?: afinidades e diferenças nos Programas de Residência Multiprofissionais de Saúde Mental do Sul e Sudeste do Brasil

Abstract

This article addresses the training of multidisciplinary residents with an emphasis on mental health in Brazil, specifically focusing on training in the Multiprofessional Residency Program in the Psychosocial Care Network at UNIFESP and the Integrated Multiprofessional Residency Program in Mental Health in the Public Health System at UFSM. The central objective of this work focuses on analyzing the training process of the Integrated Multiprofessional Residency Program in Mental Health in the Public Health System at UFSM, aiming to identify the essentiality of the experience of being a resident in the current context. The central question that guides the study is “what does it mean to be a resident?”. As for the methodology, the research is based on documentary analysis, prioritizing materials and documents that address multidisciplinary residency and the role of Social Work in this context. To compare the residency programs, the Institutional Pedagogical Projects (PPI) of UNIFESP and UFSM were used, highlighting the differences and affinities between the two training contexts. The experience report was based on materials produced by the author during the period of the multidisciplinary residency at the institution of origin and during the experience at UNIFESP, including field diaries, portfolios and photographic records. It brings pertinent debates regarding the formation of health residencies and the socio-historical context of Latin America, involving the Military Dictatorship, as well as the essentiality of Social Service within the scope of health policy. Surrounding the professional experience, it traces the analysis around the experience at the Psychosocial Care Center (CAPS) ad ZOI in the city of Santos/SP, involving the service routine, active participation in daily life, study group on Spinoza's theory of affects and others. It relates the experiences at UFSM with the experiences at eAP Saúde da Casa, Family Health Strategies (ESFs) and Santa Maria Acolhe, but highlights everyday situations in the services. The results focus based on “being a resident”, with the complexity and challenges posed in daily life, but understanding that health care must be aligned with health and humanization policies.
