MESTRE, Tatiana Filipa Silva1  e  SILVA, Carlos Alberto da2. The world of work realities of a community palliative care support team and its implications for patients care at the end of life trajectories. Sociologia [online]. 2020, vol.40, pp.35-56.  Epub 06-Mar-2022. ISSN 0872-3419.  https://doi.org/10.21747/08723419/soc40a2.

Discovering the readings of health professionals on home care practices for patients at the end of their life, through a sociological prism, is one way to better understanding the nature of palliative care. In this article, we have explored the voice of healthcare professionals from a Community Palliative Care Support Team (ECSCP), analyzing the implicit textuality of their discourse and perspectives on the nature of palliative, curative and preventive work, challenges of work on end of life process, logic of communication and translation to solve problems at work as part of the patient's end of life trajectory. This article has been prepared on the basis of preliminary data analysis collected between 2019 and 2020, as part of the project funded by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), entitled ETIC (End-of-Life Trajectories In Care) - Managing end-of-life trajectories in palliative care: a study on the work of healthcare professionals.

Palavras-chave : work; palliative care; end of life.
