The present study is an experience report that focuses on the Social Work of a tertiary-level public hospital in Fortaleza-CE, facing the Covid-19 pandemic, in which it had to draw on a whole human arsenal, theoretical/methodological and operational to meet the users' families. The general objective was to get to know the dynamics of the actions developed by the Social Service against the Covid-19 pandemic, mainly in a space called "Family Shelter" from May to July 2020. The methodology used was bibliographical research, documentary research and direct observation. The result of this study was the importance of the role of Social Work in a highly complex unit in the face of a pandemic, and mainly to understand that the Social Worker is that professional who deals directly with the user of the Unified Health System (SUS) and their social demands based on quality service. It is concluded that, in view of the public calamity that was installed, the Social Service experienced a unique moment in the history of the SUS, with the new demands imposed by the pandemic in Ceará. With effort, new practices were created in the work processes and to give new meaning to the way of service. So, the alternative was to reframe and turn the negative experience into something positive, based on the instrumentality and policy of humanization of health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article deals with the private attributions of social workers in the context of public calamity triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic whose main characteristic, in the social and economic sphere, was the deepening of social inequality. In this way, our objective is to bring to the debate the challenges posed to the profession through its private attributions in a context that also marked significant changes in performance through the new demands that required new skills from the professional, highlighting the need for continued education. From a methodological point of view, we rely on bibliographic references and on the main documents that support the profession. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this article is to reflect on the processes of theoretical incorporation in the professional environment of Social Work and its consequences in contemporary training and performance. As well as reflecting on strategies for valuing the intention to break with the conservative tradition in which the profession was created. For this, we used bibliographic reference and empirical material from data collected in the last research of the Group of Studies in Social Work, Professional Formation and Social Policy (GEPSS/UFPA), of which we are part. The lines that illustrate our analysis come from semi-structured interviews with professionals trained under the aegis of the new Curriculum Guidelines at UFPA and at private universities both on-site and at a distance. We conclude this article with the definition that neoconservatism or postmodernity has significant influences on our formation, but that do not go beyond the need for knowledge and appreciation of the intention of rupture. This indicates the urgency of highlighting this antagonistic debate in the professional sphere in order to strengthen the profession, which has historically taken a critical position.

The present study has as its general objective to understand the perspectives of the social workers of the Expanded Nucleus of Family Health and Primary Care (NASF-AB) in the municipality of Iguatu - CE regarding the use of health education as a work tool for Social Work. The research process took place through field research with a qualitative approach; semi-structured interviews were used as a data collection technique; and the information collected was analyzed and systematized based on the content analysis technique. From the research findings, some potentialities regarding the use of health education are evidenced, such as: the fact that they constitute powerful spaces in the process of deconstruction of the medical-centric health model; to provide an environment for exchange and construction of knowledge with users regarding the various forms of care; their very important role in encouraging popular organization and participation, among others. With regard specifically to the use of health education as a technical political instrument of social work, it was seen that these practices dialogue directly with the pedagogical dimension of the profession, as well as with the ethical-political project of social work, insofar as which it seeks to build an emancipatory health education, based on respect for the autonomy of subjects.

This paper aims at analyzing the professional and Institutional demands of the Social Work at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Espírito Santo, before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, through revisiting the data of our master’s research (2017) – which was held from interviews with active social workers at the Student Assistance Policy of this Institute – in interface with the analysis of letters and notes produced in the pandemic context (2020) by students and workers from different professional categories. It was theoretically supported by Antunes (2018, 2020), Iamamoto (2015) and Yazbek (2009). We concluded that the qualified professional demand of Social Work differs from the institutional demand at Ifes, then (re) visiting the data contributed to resignify the way of understanding the social work demand, which is not solitary but powerful, because it makes it possible to build alliances with other workers and students who stand and fight for equity and social justice.

More than half of medical interns do not feel safe in Health Centers (HS), since there are records of violence mainly towards social service female medical interns (SSFMI) in HS. The objective of the study was to identify the type of violence exercised in a sample of 60 women between 22 and 24 years old. The survey helped to identify four risk situations: insecurity (30%), life in danger (50%), attempted break-in (20%) and attempted sexual harassment (30%). Results also show six different types of violence: psychological (42.17 ± 11.54), physical (94.86 ± 7.07), economic (83.45 ± 5.24), sexual (27.38 ± 3.53), work (53.13 ± 36.05) and educational (43.77 ± 23.49).

As an educator, the supervisor shares with the trainee the responsibility for the teaching-learning process, motivating and facilitating this teaching. The role of educator is the supervisor's primary and most significant role in carrying out his supervisory action. The other roles stem from and are auxiliary and/or complementary to it. In this sense, this article aims to discuss the supervision of internship in Social Work, understood as an educational practice in training and professional practice. We bring the partial results of a bibliographic research carried out in the doctorate, based on the dialectical historical materialism method, with a qualitative approach. Therefore, when analyzing an educational action in internship supervision, it is necessary to be attentive to verify to what extent such action serves for the emancipatory training of the popular classes, interns or for the conservation and maintenance of relations of domination and submission.

This article is based on documentary and bibliographical research that aims to highlight a discussion about Gypsy peoples as an important dialogue in the debate about race and ethnicity in the Brazilian Social Work. To this end, a brief history about the Roma people and the process of marginalization they went through in Brazil is discussed, showing the experience of prejudice, stigmatization, and the creation of the precarious living conditions that enabled them as social services' users. Presenting research and analysis on the ethnic-racial debate within Social Work based on the professional training, intellectual production, and the stances of workers' organizations, this article highlights the (non) incorporation of the discussion about the Roma people in this debate. From this, the need for deepening and broadening the ethno-racial debate among social workers is presented as a defensive instrument of human rights in line with professional ethical principles.

This article aims to present the organization of caregivers, family or not, facing discharge of dependent elderly. The results point that the caregivers, despite the difficulties, find strategies to cope with the demands of care to the elderly. We can note a mismatch between the responsibilities assigned to the families and the support services that should be offered by existing public policies. This issue needs to be discussed, in order to give greater visibility, because the revaluation of the family in public policies can mean a retreat of the State responsibilities in meeting the needs of population.

The article proposes to delineate the concept of diakonia from the analysis of the various dimensions that the term presents both in the field of biblical theology and in the study of practical theology. Initially, seeks the New Testament bases for understanding the term "diakonia". After this biblical analysis, the article presents the perspectives proposed by the Lutheran theologian Kjell Nordstokke on the use that the term "diakonia" can have in the field of practical theology, that is, the diakonia as ethical responsibility, as ecclesiological principle and as ecclesiastical office. In the end, the article concludes that should not have a fully segmented understanding of these dimensions of diakonia, but must take a holistic view in order to weigh all the wealth involved in diaconal theology. Therefore, what is proposed is an interrelationship between these various conceptual divisions of the term, thus pointed to the importance of considering diakonia as an integrative activity that is oriented from the essence of its purpose, that is, to serve the neighbor and seek the glory of God above all things.
