A produção do cuidado em saúde para a população trans: a integralidade no cotidiano dos serviços de saúde na cidade do Recife

Abstract

The incorporation of the Transsexualization Process (PrTr) in the procedures performed by the Unified Health System / SUS expands the network of care for the transgender population in public health services, based on universal access and comprehensive care. This monograph article aims to analyze the production of PrTr care in the health services of Recife/Pernambuco, which serve the transgender population. Often the realization of social rights goes through the use of collective services, which in this case requires the State the provision of these resolutions and the actors involved, active consumers in the construction and consolidation of the realization of the legally guaranteed. The qualitative approach of the research allowed us to understand the daily routine of care production, in light of the integrality from the perspective of the interviewed users. Integrality in health care services for the trans population is a process under construction that challenges the biomedical logic of care production. Welcoming, qualified listening, dignified/respectful treatment were highlighted as fundamental to guarantee the integrality of care in these services, but it is still necessary to expand the number of professionals and specialized services in the capital, and also the interiorization in the state. Investing in both outpatient procedures and in highly complex procedures.
