SANTOS, Gabriela Grandino Rodrigues dos et al. Primary Health Care in the Face of Violence Against Women: Integrative Review. NTQR [online]. 2023, vol.18, e904.  Epub 30-Nov-2023. ISSN 2184-7770.  https://doi.org/10.36367/ntqr.18.2023.e904.

Primary Health Care (PHC) meets the individual and collective needs of its assigned population. Thus, it is considered that the health team welcomes women who have suffered violence. However, studies show the fragility of care for this group. In this sense, the role of nurses is specifically questioned. Are they able to recognize, at an early stage, users of the health service who suffer, or who are at risk of suffering violence? Would they denounce violence against women assisted at the health unit? There is a saying, very strong in Brazil, that says: "in a fight between husband and wife, don't get involved". Does this belief interfere with the actions of Primary Health Care (PHC) nurses? Given this context, the question of this investigation is: “How do nurses act in the face of violence against women in PHC?” Objective: To identify and systematize the role of nurses in the face of violence against women in PHC. Method: The Integrative Review was used, searching the LILACS and BDENF databases, in the period between 2011 and 2021, and in English and Portuguese, for articles that answered the research question. Results: Referrals to specialized services, social and psychological services, bond building, welcoming and empathy are actions promoted by nurses in PHC. Final Considerations: It is considered that the integrative review achieved the proposed objectives, since it was possible to identify and systematize the nurse's performance. This professional has the role of coordinator and, in turn, integrator of the team. It is important that he develop training activities, act with a holistic and multidisciplinary vision, due to the high complexity of domestic violence against women.
