Resumen
Community-based learning is one of the foundations of preparing future professionals
to work in health services and allows extensive training to act in various levels of health care. In
Brazil, The establishment of the “Mais Médicos” Program allowed distribution of professionals
in areas with greater need and changes in primary care work processes. In 2015, the course of
medicine at the Federal University of Amapá (UNIFAP) started students insertion activities in
health teams with professionals of the Program. This study aimed to identify the perceptions of
medical students on the learning experience in the community while following-up family health
teams of the Program. A qualitative research was conducted through focus-group technique
with fourth graders volunteers from medical school. Students had positive perceptions about
the performance of doctors, mainly reagarding the doctor-patient relationship and holistic care.
However, it was identified the need to update primary care to brazilian protocols. Students had
their preconceived view of the low professional quality of the program changed and began to best
accept the experience. The observation of the structural reality of health centers was considered
an important cause to make doctors avoid working in the coutryside or isolated regions. These
findings help to deepen the discussions on medical provision policies and their interaction with
teaching. Neverthless, further studies need to be encouraged to evaluate other aspects and impacts
caused by this type of program.
