- Abstract
Objective: To analyse the healthcare monitoring practices of the local government and its interfaces with nursing. Methods: This is a descriptive, exploratory, and qualitative study conducted in six municipalities in the 10th health region of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with six healthcare managers and one adviser, and subjected to content analysis. Results: The results led to the final categories, “Monitoring practices in municipal healthcare management” and “Difficulties of managers in implementing monitoring”. Conclusion: The managers pointed out potentialities and weaknesses in the monitoring practices of municipal healthcare. This process is critical for the practice of healthcare workers, especially nurses, since it encourages the use of new tools and innovations that support decision making.
