Objective:
to determine the prevalence of motorcycle accidents involving motorcycle taxi drivers and associated factors.
Method:
this is a cross-sectional and exploratory study, with application of questionnaires to motorcycle taxi drivers of 32 regions of Caicó, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil (N=420).
Results:
motorcycle taxi drivers have a high level of daily working hours (12 hours on average), and it was found that 63.6% were involved in at least one motorcycling accident. The occurence of motorcycling accidents was significantly associated only to level of education (p<0.001), with no significant association with the other variables, such as age (p=0.132), time of service (p=0.744) and working hours (p=0.830).
Conclusion:
it is necessary to implement preventive and educational actions with motorcycle taxi drivers and users of this service concerning accidents and emergency measures, due to constant exposure to accidents during work routine.

Objective:
to analyze the influence of two São Paulo State experiences in the choice of psychosocial care centers as guiding service providers for the national mental health policy.
Method:
qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive study using oral history as a methodology and theoretical reference.
Results:
eight professionals involved in the deployment of the mental health policy in the cities of Santos and São Paulo between the years 1989 and 1992 were interviewed. Data were analyzed after treating the narratives and grouping the most significant content. Two central themes emerged: development of the local-regional model, and the model’s influence on the choice of the psychosocial care center.
Conclusion:
due to greater insertion of the Santos experience group in the spheres of the federal government, its influence on the choice of the substitute model was higher in ideological terms, whereas the São Paulo model had its influence restricted for political reasons.

Objective:
To analyze how social representations of hospital and community care are structured in two groups of nursing students – 1st and 4th years.
Method:
Qualitative research oriented by the Theory of Social Representations. We used a questionnaire with Free Association of Words. Data were analyzed in the Software IRaMuTeQ 0.6 alpha 3.
Results:
We applied the method of Descending Hierarchical Classification and obtained four classes. Class 4 has the largest social representation (30.41%) within the corpus. The two organizational axes are nurse and disease/patient in the central core. On the periphery are the care and help related to the nurse and the treatment and prevention associated with the disease.
Conclusion:
Social representations focus on disease/patient and on the role of nurses in the treatment, prevention, and care. Health promotion and the social determinants of health are absent from the social representations of students.

Objective:
To analyze the concept of “frailty syndrome” in the literature, according to the method proposed by Walker and Avant.
Methods:
It is a concept analysis, guided by the method proposed by Walker and Avant, made operational through an integrative literature review. The search in a scientific database was carried out using the descriptors: Frail elderly, syndrome, phenotype, geriatric assessment, and aging. The literary corpus comprised 66 studies. Results: The study found the antecedents and attributes (categorized as physical, sociodemographic, and behavioral/environmental) that integrate the signs and symptoms evidenced in the “frailty syndrome,” as well as the consequences of this concept. The variables were analyzed with emphasis on the conceptions that influence the frailty process of the elderly.
Conclusion:
The study demonstrated the complexity arising from the multifactorial genesis of the referred syndrome, emphasizing the specificities of the elderly’s frailty. However, we recommend conducting further research involving the phenomenon in question to understand the construct better.

Objectives:
to interpret the self-care experience of people with intestinal ostomy registered in an ostomy program, based on the framework of the Social Model of Disability.
Methods:
qualitative exploratory research, with the participation of nine people with intestinal ostomy, based on the Social Model of Disability.
Results:
majority were elderly, married, male with colostomy due to colorectal neoplasia. The self-care of these people was analyzed in two thematic groups: “Interdisciplinary assistance needed for people with intestinal ostomy” and “Self-care for the rehabilitation of the person with intestinal ostomy”. It was proved that there was a need for a specialized health team, offering information on disabilities, teaching self-care and perioperative follow-up.
Final Considerations:
when the social barriers of physical disabilities are overcome in the context of assistance for health and life, self-care will go beyond the reductionist vision of procedural care, towards comprehensive care, favoring the achievement of rehabilitation and the quality of survival.
