School health program: Vaccination activity in a state school in Mossoró/RN
Resumo
Health and education policies aimed at children, adolescents and adults in the Brazilian public school system join forces in the attempt to promote health and comprehensive education, aiming to address the vulnerabilities that threaten the satisfactory development of these social subjects. Thus, the PSE is translated into a strategy of integration between health and education, with a view to shaping citizenship and improving existing public policies in Brazil. This is an experience report on a vaccination activity carried out in a state educational institution in Rio Grande do Norte. The activity was conducted by a nursing team, nursing interns and some Community Health Agents (CHA), providing the following vaccines: MMR, adult diphtheria and tetanus (dT), Hepatitis B and Influenza. The aim was to promote the availability of up-to-date vaccinations for individuals attending the public school in question. The administration of 80 doses of vaccines was provided, in general, to students and employees of the educational institution, who had pending issues of the respective immunobiologicals on their vaccine cards. Therefore, the importance of this action of the PSE is reaffirmed by enabling greater approximations with this public, which often ends up distancing themselves from the services offered at the UBS. In addition, the University presents itself as an integration component in the PSE, so that it offers students who are readily qualified to add to the health workforce.
