Objective: to analyze the nurses’ discourses about the actions and strategies of care for the elderly with tuberculosis in primary health care services. Method: exploratory study, with qualitative approach, developed in the municipality of João Pessoa, Paraíba. Nurses working in Primary Health Care and who assisted elderly people diagnosed with tuberculosis in the municipality were included in the study. The empirical data were analyzed using the theoretical analytical device of the Discourse Analysis of the French matrix. Results: it was evidenced that the effective implementation of active search, incentives, home visits, comprehensive care for the elderly, health education and exams favor the control of the disease, in addition to the therapeutic adherence of the elderly. Final considerations: the nurses’ discourses elucidated that professionals should rethink how they are producing care for the elderly, especially those with tuberculosis, because this population lacks specific attention, with their own singularities.

Objective: to analyze the barriers to access HIV rapid test from the perspective of the discourse of managers of Primary Health Care services. Method: exploratory, qualitative research conducted in a health district of João Pessoa, Paraíba, Brazil. Data collection was performed in September 2017 with 13 health managers. The empirical material was based on the theoretical-methodological contribution of the Discourse Analysis of the French matrix.

The discourses revealed barriers of access tied to the dimensions: geographical accessibility, availability, feasibility and acceptability.

Objective: describe the perception of workers of the Family Health Strategy teams in relation to teamwork. Methodology: a descriptive and qualitative research, performed between April and June 2014, through semi-structured interviews with 54 professionals working in 10 Family Health Strategy units in a city in southern Brazil. Data interpretation was by means of thematic category analysis. Results: from discourse analysis emerged categories: multi-professionality; sharing decisions and responsibilities; respect and appreciation of the work of others; division of duties, in which elements were identified that promote the two models that permeate the current professional practice, fragmented and focused on the disease and integral. Conclusion: the perception of teamwork for FHS workers is associated with multi-professionality in interdisciplinary logic, with the exchange of knowledge among its members as a mechanism to carry out healthcare actions.
