Atribuições do enfermeiro no atendimento pré-hospitalar

Abstract

This is an integrative review held in the database as Scielo, Lilacs, Google Scholar, with publications of the last 15 years. After the search through the descriptors "Nurse", "Urgent and Emergency", "duties" and "prehospital" were found about twenty articles that fit the established criteria, and that eleven of these were used (count the items again the table). The goal was to identify the activities performed by nurses in prehospital care (PHC). By analysis it was possible to identify how the activities carried out by nurses in APH can be divided into care, management and education, realizing greater emphasis on publications geared to the care component. There was a deficiency in the preparation of these professionals at graduation, in addition to the conflict in existing legislation regarding the participation of nurses in basic support units.
