| Sumario: | Objective: To describe aspects of care for people with hearing impairment from the assessment of nurses working in family health. Method: Qualitative, descriptive, exploratory pilot study. The initial population of the study was 53 individuals, however, the sample consisted of 37 nurses, including graduates and students of the Specialization Course in Nursing in Family Health, in the Residence Modality. For the development of the investigation, the proposed project was evaluated by a Research Ethics Committee and approved under opinion number 2.543.278. Results: 62.16% of participants have seen patients with hearing impairment; 92% reported that this service was not fully effective and only 11% mentioned the existence of resources that ensure adequate care; 27% of participants did not feel able to provide assistance to this audience and all perceived the need for qualification to provide care to people with hearing impairment, and the most cited strategy was the incorporation of content in graduation. Conclusion: This analysis was responsible for a conclusive diagnosis of insecurity, incapacity of care and unpreparedness of the health unit itself, which points to the need to build and reformulate public policies for permanent education and maintenance of friendly institutional health environments that guarantee the structuring of a resolute service system for this population. |
