Introdução: O Código Deontológico dos Enfermeiros encerra nos seus artigos os
direitos e deveres da classe profissional, alicerçado nos princípios éticos e autoregulação
da própria profissão. Como disposições essenciais para o exercício
profissional, é fundamental o conhecimento pelos enfermeiros sobre o seu código
deontológico, de modo a pautar a sua conduta profissional.
Objetivos: Identificar os conhecimentos e experiência dos enfermeiros com o
Código Deontológico.
Métodos: Estudo quantitativo com análise descritiva-correlacional, de corte
transversal, com uma amostra de 120 enfermeiros em exercício de funções, a
frequentar cursos de formação na Escola Superior de Saúde de Viseu. O
instrumento de colheita de dados (ad hoc) é constituído por um questionário e uma
escala criada para o efeito.
Resultados: A amostra é predominantemente feminina (83,3%), média de idades
(34,28 anos ±7,66 anos), prevalecendo a categoria de Enfermeiro (91,7%). A maioria
frequenta cursos de pós-licenciatura(51,7%), exerce funções em unidades não
hospitalares (51,7%), com média de 10,86 anos (±7,52 anos) de experiência
profissional e nunca frequentou formação em ética/deontologia (51,7%). Um total de
79,2% classifica como negativo/aceitável o reconhecimento social da profissão. A
idade (superior a 35 anos), a experiência profissional (maior experiência) e a melhor
percepção pessoal dos conhecimentos interferem nos conhecimentos dos
enfermeiros com o seu código deontológico.
Conclusões: Os resultados obtidos revelam que é importante os enfermeiros
reflectirem sobre os seus conhecimentos sobre o código deontológico e alicerçar as
suas experiências em princípios éticos e deveres deontológicos, de forma a
preencher lacunas existentes.
