Ressignificating theory of professional links in nursing work / Ressignificando teoría de los vínculos profesionales en el trabajo en enfermeira / Ressignificando teoria dos vínculos profissionais no trabalho em enfermagem

ABSTRACT Objective: to construct new meanings for the concepts of the Theory of Professional Links with the nursing staff in the micro workspace. Method: qualitative, descriptive and exploratory, based on Vygotsky's Historical-Cultural Theory. Eight care nurses from different care settings participated in the study. The data collection was conducted by the focus group technique and analysis by Minayo´ s operational proposal. Results: At the beginning of the resignification, some weaknesses have arisen for the application of the theory, among them: lack of time and physical space to meet with the teams, inexperience with approach and techniques of group dynamics. Spirituality and conflict management have emerged in the collective discourse contributing to the perfection of the theory. Conclusions and Implications for practice: from the theory application, there were gaps to be overcome both in the relational, technical and personal scope, allowing each nurse to visualize how their work process is given. Enables a reflective exercise on the doing and scope of group work and nurses' action and discourse in the management of interpersonal relationships. Through the new concepts added to the theory it can constitute a management model for nursing work.

RESUMEN Objetivo: construir nuevos significados para conceptos de la Teoría de los Vínculos Profesionales con el equipo de enfermería en el micro espacio de trabajo. Método: cualitativo, descriptivo, exploratorio, fundamentado en la Teoría Histórico-Cultural de Vygotsky. Participaron ocho enfermeras asistenciales de escenarios distintos del cuidado. Datos colectados por la técnica de grupo focal y análisis por la propuesta operativa de Minayo. Resultados: al inicio de la resignificación surgieron algunas fragilidades para la aplicación de la teoría, entre ellas: falta de tiempo y espacio físico para reunirse con los equipos, inexperiencia con el abordaje y las técnicas de dinámica grupal. Espiritualidad y gestión de conflictos surgieron en el discurso colectivo contribuyendo para el perfeccionamiento de la teoría. Conclusiones e Implicaciones para la práctica: se evidenciaron lagunas para superar tanto en el ámbito relacional, técnico y personal, permitiendo que cada enfermera visualizara cómo se da su proceso de trabajo. Permite un ejercicio reflexivo sobre la realización y el alcance del trabajo grupal y la acción y el discurso de las enfermeras en el manejo de las relaciones interpersonales. Por medio de los nuevos conceptos que se agregaron a la teoría, se puede constituir un modelo de gestión para el trabajo en enfermería.

Método: Qualitativo, descritivo e exploratório, fundamentado na Teoria Histórico-Cultural de Vygotsky. Participaram do estudo oito enfermeiras assistenciais de cenários distintos do cuidado. A coleta dos dados se deu pela técnica de grupo focal e análise pela proposta operativa de Minayo. Resultados: No início da ressignificação surgiram algumas fragilidades para aplicação da teoria, entre elas: falta de tempo e espaço físico para reunirem-se com as equipes, inexperiência com abordagem e técnicas de dinâmica grupal. A espiritualidade e gestão de conflitos emergiram no discurso coletivo contribuindo para aperfeiçoamento da teoria. Conclusões e Implicações para a prática: A partir da aplicação da teoria, evidenciaram-se lacunas a serem superadas tanto no âmbito relacional, técnico e pessoal, permitindo que cada enfermeira visualizasse como se dá seu processo de trabalho. Possibilita um exercício reflexivo sobre o fazer e o alcance do trabalho em grupo e sobre a ação e discurso das enfermeiras na gestão das relações interpessoais. Por meio dos novos conceitos que se agregaram à teoria, pode constituir um modelo de gestão para o trabalho em enfermagem.
