[Analysis of the situation, evaluation and improvement proposals of the Preventive Activities and Health Promotion...

To analyze the situation, evaluation and proposals for improvement of the Preventive Activities and Health Promotion Program (PAPPS).

A qualitative study of situation analysis was carried out for the evaluation of the PAPPS in 2 phases: 1) Generation of ideas and collection of information through a DAFO matrix, using 2 types of criteria: internal (strengths and weaknesses), and external (threats and opportunities); 2) Prioritization of the improvement proposals collected. Selection of participants: Key informants were identified taking into account their relationship and knowledge of the PAPPS program. All members of the PAPPS, expert groups and members with past participation were included, as well as the coordinators, including the autonomous leaders of the PAPPS. Two invitations to participate in the study were sent: the first from December 29, 2017 to February 11, 2018, and the second from January 10 to 23, 2019. The information was obtained from a questionnaire designed to be self-completed.

A total of 73 subjects answered the questionnaire. 35% of the participants were members of the PAPPS working groups, followed by family doctors from other areas, with 20.5%. The order of prioritization of the improvement proposals was as follows: 1) Unify recommendations with other semFYC working groups; 2) Prepare lists with "Recommendations not to do" from the point of view of prevention; 3) Incorporate PAPPS in the political agenda; 4) Greater coordination and interaction between groups with common competences; 5) Teaching in undergraduate and teaching units; 6) Review, update and dissemination of the program in Primary Care.
