| Popis: | The curriculum of UFSCar’s occupational therapy graduation assumes that the student’s inclusion in the venue of primary care brings benefits both to student learning and improvements in the quality of care given. Set this, the participation of students in communities’ activities is encouraged. The experiments described in this paper were experienced by undergraduate students on the in-field activity called “Training graduate students in occupational therapy and community health agents to promote child development surveillance activities in primary health care”, with the main goal of promoting actions aimed at child’s development in primary care at the Families’ Health Teams in São Carlos, through the training of students of occupational therapy. The material used was the booklet “Every Time is Caring Time”, containing nine themes: care of the pregnant woman, bond, affection, vaccination schedule, child development, nutrition, hygiene, disease’s precautions, accidents’ prevention and the children’s rights. This report describes the second (training of Community Health Workers) and third (replication of training at the user families of the Family Health Units) extension activity steps from field reports of students enrolled in the project. The training took place in the neighborhood of Jd. São Carlos and Maria Stella Fagá. The potential of promoting child’s development activities through Communities Agents was also verified. Concluding that using Primary Health Care context to teach and learn was extremely efficient in the scope of understanding the NHS and comprehending the role of an Occupational Therapist in the community, going beyond the rehabilitation actions. |
