RESUMO

Through the enlargement of the concept of health, which started to envolve biopsychosocial factors, the occurrence of multidisciplinary teams becomes frequent in hospital institutions, aiming an integral care for patients and family members. Assuming that the psychologist is a professional who has been inserted further more into the hospital reality, a research was developed to comprehend how other health professionals (such as doctors and nurses) notice the psychologist when it comes to his functions, importance or difficulties faced by him. This is a qualitative, exploratory and transversal field study which made use of an interview guided by axes to collect informations of 21 professionals of a teaching hospital of the interior of Rio Grande do Sul. Nine doctors, nine nurses and three psychologists from different sectors were part of it. The interviews were analyzed by the principles of the content analysis and the originated categories are described and debated in three articles. It became evident that the health professionals consider relevant the accomplishment of a biopsychosocial approach in health care, besides gazing as work ideal the multidisciplinary team. However, at the hospital in question the reality is that the teams are restricted when it comes to their professional areas. It was noted that the doctors and nurses expectation is that the psychologist act within the aspects that the other professionals do not feel able to act on, such as anguish, crying, fear of death and treatment denial. In addition, it is attributed to the psychologist the capacity of seeing beyond the diseased body and to accomplish some functions at the hospital. For the respondents, the psychologist would let some instruments as attentive hearing, the almost magic speaking and his time available. It was also mentioned that the graduation course in psychology is far-off the other health courses and, consequently, the hospital itself, which can result in the inadequacy of the psychologist before the hospital reality. In this manner, it is therefore concluded that the hospital is an institution composed by many factors and, for it to integrate itself satisfactorily , the psychologist must initiate his journey in the graduation process, getting closer to the team colleagues and building a space of acknowledgement and psychology valorization.
