Atenção a homens e mulheres em situação de violência por parceiro íntimo (2024)

Abstract

Introduction: The experience began with a proposal to conduct a course on intimate partner violence on the UNA-SUS platform, an essential topic in healthcare practice. Method: The experience involved participation in an online theoretical module, which included reading materials, watching explanatory videos, case studies, and analyzing classic references, such as Lenore Walker's model and Brazilian research on gender-based violence. The activity required critical reflection and articulation between theory and practice. Results/Discussion: Throughout the course, I was able to deepen my understanding of the cycle of violence, recognizing its phases—tension, explosion, remorse, promises, and "honeymoon"—and its characteristic of a progressive spiral, becoming increasingly intense and frequent. Conclusion: The course on UNA-SUS represented a significant formative experience, broadening my perception of the complexity of intimate partner violence and strengthening my skills to act ethically, humanely, and sensitively. This learning directly contributes to my professional practice, reinforcing the importance of active listening, acceptance, and integrated action across different sectors.
