Características dos processos educativos em hospitais do Recife/PE.

Abstract

The present work deals with an academic research carried out in two hospitals in the city of Recife-PE, which provides an opportunity to discuss a field of activity of the pedagogue that is little known: the hospital environment. Considering that all children and adolescents have the right to education and should not be deprived of this right during hospitalization, we sought to clarify how the educational processes take place within hospitals in Recife-PE, both in the hospital class, which is a teaching that attends in a classroom inside the hospital, in beds or in the ICU; and in the toy libraries and other spaces for hospitalized children. The general objective of this work was to characterize the organization of the educational process in hospitals and who works in these spaces. The research began with visits to the toy libraries found in spaces categorized as Hospital A and Hospital B. And it continued, remotely, through the application of a questionnaire on the role of the pedagogue in the hospital class. A thematic analysis was carried out with the results obtained in the data collection, noting that despite having an important role in schooling in a hospital environment, no pedagogues were found working in the toy libraries and in the hospital class, in hospitals in Recife-PE.
