Abstract

In this article strategies are pointed out to operationalize advances in home care within the Family Health Strategy (FHS) as a result of a previous study entitled “The practice of home care of the Family Health Program professionals”. We used the methodology of action research with 27 health professionals from an FHS Unit. 19 strategies were listed, grouped into six different themes: service planning and organization; professional preparation; the conditions that permeate the home care; review and strengthening of knowledge; better utilization of reality; and inclusive discussion. The strategies presented show the need for involvement of all political levels – popular, professional and government participation – to change the reality of health in Brazil.
