- Abstract
Objective: to characterize the profile of the patients and to size the nursing staff of a medical clinic unit. Method: Descriptive and cross-sectional study in which the patients were classified according to the instrument approved by COFEN Resolution no 543/2017, and then proposed the sizing according to the same Resolution. Results: amongst the total of 3415 classifications made, 35.8% were patients in minimal care, 28.6% were intermediate care patients, 20.9% were highly dependent, 14.1% were semi-intensive and 0.6% were in intensive care. There was a deficit of five nurses in relation to the COFEN's recommendation and a surplus of 12 nursing technicians / assistants. Conclusion: There was a surplus of the available team, however, with differences between the professional categories. There were deficits of five nurses and surplus of 12 nursing technicians / assistants. The study may contribute to the dissemination of the topic to nursing in order to seek better care results and satisfactory working conditions.
