- Abstract
Objective: to describe the perception of nurses working in Primary Care about the health education actions directed at adolescents. Method: an exploratory descriptive study with a qualitative approach. Data collection took place using semi-structured, audio-recorded interviews in November 2017, with 15 nurses working in a health district in the capital of Mato Grosso do Sul. The interviews were fully transcribed and submitted to Minayo's thematic analysis. Results: Most of the time, the nurses carry out educational activities of an informative kind that do not encourage the self- health care of adolescents. Sometimes, the Programa Saúde na Escola (Health at School Program) is the reference for professionals in the creation of health education strategies, especially due to the difficulties resulting from the low demand of adolescents for health services and the absence of educational strategies to work with them. Conclusion: There is a need for greater investments in permanent education, in the implementation of existing public policies, and in intervention programs that favor the increase of incentive strategies for the self-care of adolescents by the Primary Care professionals.
