Formação em primeiros socorros na escolas: revisão de escopo e elaboração e validação de uma ementa/conteúdo programático de uma disciplina para as licenciaturas

Abstract

The objective of this study is the formulation and validation by expert judges of a syllabus and programmatic content aimed at undergraduate courses, aiming at training teachers and educators in first aid. Therefore, a scoping review was developed to validate the study and provide adequate scientific support. During the development of the work, it was found that there is a deficiency in the training of graduates who work in schools or recreational institutions, both in Brazil and around the world. A very notable fact for Brazil was the development of the Lucas Law, in 2018, when a child died after not having received adequate care on a school trip, while suffering from the choking process. In this context, by having a scientific apparatus, teachers can contribute to reducing common incidents that surround them on a daily basis, as children aged 0 to 19 remain under the responsibility of these professionals most of the time. Finally, adequate training for future teachers, during graduation, can guarantee better security of action in urgent and emergency situations, in addition to improving pre-hospital care, reducing avoidable costs to public coffers.
