Abstract
Objective: The objective of this review is to present ideas that strengthen basic education in order to awaken in students the desire to work in health, as a way to expand the professional framework of the area. Bibliographic Review: Brazilian health faces constant problems due to the absence of dedicated professionals and inclined to the challenges posed by their demands. Brazil has a significant portion of its population living in areas of difficult access, and not all professionals are willing to face these challenges, which makes the activity of the State to guarantee health for all a serious problem. Expanding prior knowledge, encouraging the search for the profession, would cause areas that are completely lacking in professionals to be filled. Brazilian basic education has ample space for the first steps and the first incentives to be taken, which makes it a fertile ground to awaken new professionals, with a desire for the professions in the area and willing to face challenges. Final Considerations: The study is based on educational principles aimed at creating citizens willing to collaborate with the common good, and how important it is to open the doors of basic education to knowledge that allows the student to interact with professionalism.
