| Sumario: | Objective: Inquire representations of nutritional caretakers and health effectors about practices of child nutritional care (PCNC) considered by health plans and programs implemented in the city of Cordoba. Method: Qualitative research. In-depth interviews were used exploring knowledge, believes and attitudes about PCNC, participants were 19 caretakers of children under the program Growth and Development Control and 6 health effectors from Cordoba. Information analysis was performed using grounded theory. Results: Care is understood and assumed by caretakers and effectors in different ways, generating agreements and disagreements among the different actors; problems in the coordination and communication about nutritional care among actors are observed; thus developing a setting marked by hegemony; care is considered a female role with very little male participation. Conclusions: Representations are dominated by the hegemonic model prevailing in health. Caretakers are self-placed as such, as a natural law for being women. It would be necessary to move from the hegemonic hospital-centered model to another, so that professionals may come closer and work with the community. |
