This is a study that addresses the expansion of a service as a result of decentralization of actions of Sanitary Surveillance (VISA) to the municipal level. Objectives: To identify the use of continuing health education in the VISA of a municipality in Rio de Janeiro. Method: The study is descriptive and employs a qualitative approach. Information was gathered during the first half of 2014 through focus groups connected with a municipality’s VISA team. As inclusion criterion for participation in the research was established professionals crowded in the municipal VISA and the exclusion criterion was that employees do not have availability to participate in the data collection. The data collected was analyzed using Bardin’s content analysis method. The results indicated the use of traditional teaching methods in educational processes, with limited dialogue and no proposal for the construction of collective spaces for reflection, far from the ‘problematization’ of the work process and concepts that are not desirable to the permanent health education (EPS). The research aims to contribute to EPS inserting VISA service, providing meetings which permit the exercise of an educational model different from those whose the professionals are accostumed.Downloads
