Trabalho, Educação e Saúde - TES (Work, Education and Health) is an open access scientific journal, edited by the Joaquim Venâncio Polytechnic School of Health, from Oswaldo Cruz Foundation.
The objective of this work is to verify the nature of the relationship between the members of family health teams and also how they perform at work. This was done by identifying themes that promote convergence and divergence between professionals that were divided, for this purpose, into two groups: those with high education and those with secondary education. Methodologically, we developed a qualitative study, using focal group technique, to determine the views and perceptions of the PSF team members about the training courses they attended and about the activities developed in the Family Health Units. The themes covered were five, namely: team's training, team's responsibilities, stand-by support for the PSF, relationship with the community and the PSF as a care model. The themes that led to greater consensus between the two groups were team's training and stand-by support for the PSF. The other themes - team's responsibilities, relationship with the community and PSF as a care model - led to disagreements. The research also enabled us to verify that are some problems in the relationship between team members and limitations in their performance with respect to integrated and interdisciplinary actions.
