Abstract:
Primary health care is one of the different fields of nursing practice. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a series of questions regarding exposure that nursing professionals face in terms of occupational risks in primary health care. The aim of this study was to discuss to discuss, based on scientific evidence, the occupational risks experienced by the nursing team in the Family Health Strategy. This integrative literature review was conducted in the Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS) database and the Nursing Database (BDENF) between June and October 2020. The descriptors used in the search were: nursing, occupational risks, and primary health care. Inclusion criteria were original, open access articles published between 2005 and 2019 with the full text available. Of the 37 articles initially found, 6 were included in the analysis and after screening. Despite their presence during nursing work, occupational risks are not very perceptible except for biological risks, the understanding of which comes from professional practice rather than research and/or training. No article was addressed about the risk map or its use in the Family Health Strategy. Health managers must offer personal protective equipment and establish biosafety standards and training activities about occupational risks.
