“…Essa medida relativa é obtida por meio do cálculo do coeficiente de variação -CV (FONSECA;MARTINS, 2009). O coeficiente de variação é uma medida de dispersão relativa, apresentado em percentuais (FONSECA;MARTINS, 2009). Para determinar se a dispersão é baixa, média ou alta, os autores determinam faixas, onde enquadram os valores do coeficiente de variação calculados.…”

The objective this research is identify the extent to which spirituality is present in technology-based organizations. Based on the functionalist paradigm, it was conducted a survey, with cross-sectional. The data analysis occurred through descriptive statistics (distribution of frequencies, measures of central tendency and dispersion). The results demonstrate the extent to which spirituality is present in the organizations surveyed. The values obtained with the determination of the measures of central tendency, especially, the mean, with relatively high value, shows that the dimensions of spirituality in organizations are present in the companies surveyed. The values of the dispersion measurements indicate that the mean obtained is not the result of discrepant factors. Therefore, spirituality is present in the organizational environment of the companies surveyed and its level can be considered relatively high.

“…In addition, feelings such as impotence, frustration, incompetence and frailty are common and the health professional must overcome their own taboos and prejudices in order to help patients face the crisis that began at the moment of diagnosis. 16,17 These aspects help the overall understanding of the extent of the psychic burden mentioned in the interviews.…”

“…Clearly, the difficulties reported by these health professionals demonstrate the precarious nature of the care provided, whether it be due to the insufficient number of doctors to meet the demand, the need for better patient flow and transfers, or the lack of support strategies for health professionals and service teams who deal with this complex issue. 16,17,29,30 Furthermore, it is important to note that AIDS cases involve many demands that extrapolate the biomedical model of health care, requiring new training and professional activity parameters, focused on technical demands, psychosocial aspects and the need to coordinate multi-disciplinary teams for this type of work. 16,17 The present study was developed with a restricted group of professionals.…”

“…In terms of the specificities of health professionals who work with patients living with HIV/AIDS, literature suggests that these patients deal with the following issues: fear; uncertainty related to dealing with news that causes suffering and is irreversible; stigmas and prejudice related to HIV/AIDS that link the disease to drug addiction and socially questionable sexual habits; issues related to suffering and social exclusion; and concerns about the finiteness of life. 16,17 This situation challenges health professionals to undertake critical and reflective thinking about their patients on a daily basis. Thus, the present study could help clarify the complexity of providing health care services and the different aspects that affect the daily lives of these health workers, including the relationship between health practices and stereotypes about the disease and the sexuality of elderly individuals who live with HIV/ AIDS.…”

The number of HIV/AIDs diagnoses among the elderly is currently increasing both in Brazil and on a global level. The present article describes the results of a qualitative study which aimed to assess the role of health professionals on elderly patients diagnosed with HIV/AIDS receiving treatment via the public health service. Nine professionals who made up a specialized HIV/AIDS service in a medium-sized city in the state of Minas Gerais were interviewed. Their statements were subjected to content analysis, and the results suggested that according to the perceptions of the health professionals, the main impacts of the diagnosis of HIV/AIDS are linked to isolation, loneliness, prejudice, fear of revealing the diagnosis and the decrease or interruption of sexual practices. The professionals reported being overburdened both psychologically and in terms of workload, having difficulty addressing aspects of sexuality and sexual practices with the elderly, and admitted to possessing certain stereotypes and prejudices related to HIV/AIDS and the sexuality of the elderly. Through results analysis, it was concluded that the stigma and prejudice related to HIV and the sexuality of the elderly are intimately present in the work processes of the professionals interviewed, impacting on the treatment of such individuals and interfering with their health and illness processes. The discussion of these aspects should be included in health training strategies.
