Abstract

Objective: To validate a longitudinal care program to assist adolescents in their first pregnancy. Methods: Methodological study for face

and content validation of a home visit program. Data were collected using the Delphi technique, by sending the guidelines of Programa Jovens Mães
Cuidadoras by e-mail. In data analysis, a content validity index with an established value of 0.75 was used. Results: The sample was 11 professionals,
among whom seven were experts in several health areas and four were exclusive nursing professionals. In group 1, the obtained content validity index
was compatible with the expected value, but group 2 indicated that the values descriptive of the sample regarding the content of four items resulted
in an index and agreement level lower than the established number, that is, 0.75. Conclusion: The home visit program was validated as for its face
and content aspects. The suggestions given by the referees were incorporated into a new version of the program and are available in the present paper.
