Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação) - Curso de Serviço Social, Centro de Ciências Sociais Aplicadas, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2025.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/65369This study analyzes the specificities of professional social work in Adult Intensive Care Units (ICUs), which are part of the high-complexity care level within Brazil’s Unified Health System (SUS). The research, qualitative and exploratory in nature, was based on the analysis of academic literature and the internship experience in a public hospital. The study highlighted particular aspects such as shift work, the management of social discharges, and the intensification of the work pace, among other practices that shape the dynamics of this setting. It was also observed that high-complexity care presents demands similar to those encountered in other areas of social work practice; however, these demands take on specific characteristics due to their inclusion in this level of healthcare.pt-BRAttribution 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/br/Serviço SocialAssistente socialAtividade profissionalUnidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI)Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS)bachelorThesisCIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::SERVICO SOCIAL
