Psicotrópicos; -Educação Médica. RESUMO O Jardim Campo Belo, localizado no município de Campinas (SP), é um bairro de alta vulnerabilidade social e grande demanda por serviços de saúde, sendo a única oferta em saúde mental o matriciamento com outra unidade de saúde. Neste contexto, durante as disciplinas do segundo ano de Medicina, foi realizado um projeto de intervenção no Centro de Saúde, mediante acompanhamento em domicilio de pacientes usuários de psicotrópicos. Realizaram-se visitas quinzenais às casas de dez pacientes. Nestas visitas, trabalhou-se um roteiro semidirigido, em que se buscou conhecer as demandas de cada paciente. Alguns destes aumentaram os cuidados com a própria saúde, e num caso houve até suspensão do uso dos medicamentos psicotrópicos, em parceria com a equipe; em outros casos, as visitas serviram como válvula de escape social, tornando-se um espaço onde se ofertava atenção aos que estavam acostumados ao abandono social. Os alunos envolvidos relatam grande aprendizado graças às vivências e ao envolvimento com o tema, que se tornou um grande suplemento pedagógico. ABSTRACT Located in Campinas (SP). Jardim Campo Belo is a neighborhood characterized by high social vulnerability and a high demand for health services, with the only mental health service on offer accessiblevia another healthcare unit. It was in this context and during the second year of medical school, that we conducted an intervention initiative, monitoring patients using psychotropic drugs in their homes. Fortnightly visits were made to homes of 10 patients. During these visits, we conducted semi-directed interviews that allowed us to learn of the patients' needs. Some patients increased their own healthcare measures, in one case even being suspended from using psychotropic medications, in partnership with the health team. In other cases, visits served to provide a kind of sounding board, providing a moment for offering attention to individuals used to being neglected by society. Students involved reported having learned a great deal from the experiences and involvement with the subject, with it serving as a valuable educational supplement to the degree course.
