Travestis e o Cuidado Humanizado em Saúde

Based on SUS guidelines, with principles of universality, completeness and equity, we carried out a study with the objective of identifying conceptions, desires, fears and suggestions regarding humanized health care for transvestites, in primary health care. The theoretical-methodological path was the Dialectic Hermeneutics using an in-depth interview and use of "scenes", with seven participants. The interviewees reported difficulties in accessing and using health services. In view of the difficulties encountered, in order to carry out a humanized care, we identify some necessary changes in the interlocution of health with the transvestite population: Training of health professionals, dialogue with the social movement, dissemination campaigns and the approximation with the meaning of the experience of being transvestite There is an urgent need for effective work in the training of health professionals, as well as in the daily lives of our lives, surrounded by discriminatory attitudes, in the name of commitment to suffering the other.
