Abstract

Objective: to analyze the implication of the permanent education process for the development of best Nursing practices in Primary Health Care.
Methodology: a quanti-qualitative study conducted in two health macro-regions in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil. The sample was made up of 216 nurses, from 97 municipalities. The data were obtained by applying a questionnaire, and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The qualitative data were produced by means of focus groups, in three municipalities, and analyzed with the aid of Atlas.ti 8.0®.
Results: A total of 174 nurses (80.6%) have some specialization. 200 (92%) participate in permanent education processes, including exchange of experiences and updates, with Telessaúde (Telehealth) standing out. The discourses originated five code groups: sharing knowledge and experiences; knowledge and experience qualify the practice; education: liberation and change; teaching-service integration, and time to learn.
Conclusion: the permanent education processes approach concepts of liberating education and point to the experience and use of evidence.
