Abstract
Objective: To report the experience of multiprofessional residents in Adult and Elderly Health on the elaboration of the Unique Therapeutic Project (PTS) at the University Hospital of the Federal University of Maranhão. Case detail: Multiprofessional health residency promotes the interdisciplinarity of care by the joint work of different professional categories in healthcare and health education activities. The PTS consists of an instrument of action based on the articulation of therapeutic behaviors for a subject resulting from the collective discussion of the interdisciplinary team. During on-the-job training, residents attended meetings, talk wheels, and planning and implementation activities of the PTS aimed at resolving complex cases in the health care of vulnerable elderly. Weekly meetings were held to discuss the cases, aiming to align the therapeutic objectives in the short, medium and long term, resulting in the construction of the intervention plan based on the health, social and political-programmatic needs of the cases. Final considerations: It was verified that the PTS proposal allowed the multiprofessional team to question the specific needs of the elderly, contemplating the integrality of attention in a humanized perspective of care, socialization of knowledge, incorporation of multidimensionality in approaches and improvement of practices.
