TRAJMAN, Anete et al. A preceptoria na rede básica da Secretaria Municipal de Saúde do Rio de Janeiro: opinião dos profissionais de Saúde. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2009, vol.33, n.01, pp.24-32. ISSN 1981-5271.

Training of health professionals with the necessary skills in primary care should begin during undergraduate medical education. However, training in the primary care network still faces obstacles among faculty, students, and the primary care clinics operated by municipal health departments. Considering the relevant role of supervisors in training students in health-related fields, we investigated the opinions of healthcare professionals in the primary care network in Rio de Janeiro concerning their student supervision activities. A total of 351 health professionals from 13 of the 67 primary care clinics answered a questionnaire. Of these, 77% felt that student supervision is part of their responsibilities, and 61% said they would like to play this role. Various difficulties were identified, including structural and human resources problems. According to the findings, medical schools and the government are responsible for the under-valuing of student supervision, emphasizing the need to review the working and teaching conditions in the primary care network. The results also highlight improvements in wages and infrastructure and the opportunity for professional advancement, requiring effective partnerships between medical schools and the Municipal Health Department.
