Curso Superior de Tecnologia em Gestão Hospitalar: Quem são seus egressos e como os serviços de saúde reconhecem esses profissionais.

Abstract

This study evaluated the training and professional trajectory of graduates in Hospital Management at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. This is a mixed research, with a quantitative and qualitative approach. For data collection, the following techniques were used: application of an electronic form managed through Google Forms and semi-structured interviews. The studied population consisted of 40 graduates of the course in 2020 and 2021, which corresponded to 56% of the 70 graduates in this period. The vision of health services was obtained by the management in health services of Rio Grande do Norte who would have greater decision-making power within the institution. The results indicate that graduates are satisfied with their training, but unsatisfied with the few job opportunities offered, while managers understand the great need for these graduates to enter the job market and consider them to be of fundamental importance as professionals trained in hospital management will have a more qualified perspective on the management of the Unified Health System in Brazil.
