title: [The work process in the reception of a primary care unit worker's view].
abstract: This qualitative study aimed at understanding the elements that constitute the work process in the reception room of a Primary Care Unit. The theoretical approach used was the work process in health. Data were collected through free observation and semi-structured interview. The Discourse of the Collective Subject and the Thematic Analysis were used for data organization and treatment. Results reveal fragmentation of the work process. The duties are taken as subject of the job, the needs of the users are limited to execution of procedures, and the main instruments are the norms and routines. The work purpose is care to the needy people. We concluded there is a need to develop analysis about the work.
