[Permanent education in the context of nursing and health]

In this essay authors discuss the current proposal of permanent education by the Health Ministry, which is focused on the formation of human resources for the Public Health System. It covers education as a whole and specifically adult education, an issue that directly affects nursing, as nursing contributes with the largest number of healthcare workers, constituting the central focus of public policies. In this way authors present the main controversies and suggest adherence to the government program, understanding that for the first time there is a comprehensive project in this area that is intended to be permanent.
