Abstract

This study aims to analyze the trends and perspectives of the professional practice of the social worker in health from its insertion in the hospitals located in the city of Goiânia-GO, having as support the references of the Sanitary Reform Movement (MRS) and the professional ethicalpolitical project of social work in Brazil (PEP), constituted from the following research problem: What are the trends and perspectives of the professional practice of social workers in the health field from the conception of health reform and the ethical project - professional politician in high complexity hospitals in the city of Goiânia-GO? Its methodological framework was constituted by documental, theoretical and field research in the light of Marxist critical social theory. Data collection and analysis of eighteen (18) social workers in three (3) hospitals was carried out. According to the research objectives, it is learned that health is conditioned and determined by capitalist exploitation, and incorporated as a function of the State, which consolidates health rights in a tense and contradictory way. Particularly in the socio-historical formation of Brazil, the development of the Sanitary Reform Movement, the creation of the Unified Health System (SUS), and the challenges posed by the privatist project from the impacts of the neoliberal offensive stand out. The MRS, inducer and resultant of social struggles and inserted in the middle of the class struggle presents convergences with the professional ethical-political project of Social Work in its theoretical-methodological and ethical-political perspectives; constituting, in interrelationships, essential references for a critical and competent performance of social workers. However, based on the data obtained from the research, weaknesses in the appropriation of the PEP were identified in the professional practice and this in its interlocution with MRS, evidenced through the execution of bureaucratic activities, with a strong appeal to assistentialism and voluntarism and that directly or indirect, strengthen the privatist health project
