Popis: ABSTRACT Objective: To identify the challenges faced by professionals to add resoluteness to actions in mental health developed in the context of Primary Care. Method: Qualitative study with 30 professionals, including 17 nurses, four doctors, five psychologists and four social workers. Data were collected in three municipalities of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, in April 2018, through a semi-structured interview, later submitted to thematic analysis. Results: Challenges pointed out by professionals to add resoluteness to actions in mental health are related to the lack of specific knowledge to support the actions professionals perform; with the organization of services and participation of managers; and with the ambivalence of people with mental disorders regarding acceptance and continuity of treatment. Conclusion: The construction of shared practices among professionals, people with mental disorders and their families is necessary. Implications for practice: The study allows theoretical-practical articulations capable of generating transformations in mental health care model.
