Abstract
Objective: To report the experience of second-year medical students in a preventive activity with parents and guardians in a childcare waiting room in a basic health unit in a city in the interior of the state of São Paulo. Experience report: This paper reports the experience of six medical students during a fourth period curriculum subject, in which they were inserted in primary care with a focus on developing health education activities. Among the workshops held, there is the accident prevention workshop. Final considerations: Child accidents are the leading cause of death among children aged between one and 14 years in Brazil. Since most accidents occur at home and simple measures can prevent them. Soon, having access to information is of paramount importance for the population to change this epidemiological reality. On the other hand, the activities developed by students in increasing complexity during graduation, through the teaching-service-community integration, can lead to the improvement of communication skills, which is extremely important for the medical context. Thus, it is understood that activities like this have a double impact, that is, on the community and graduation.
