Abstract

The quality of life evaluation of acting professionals in Family Health Strategies was the objective of this quantitative field study, with the application of the WHOQOL-bref questionnaire. Data collection took place from June to August 2019 and SPSS 25.0 performed data analysis. Of the 200 employees who participated in the study, 190 were female. A number of 148 professionals rated the quality of life as regular. In the separate evaluation of the domains, they also obtained a regular result. Among the four evaluated domains, the physical domain obtained the lowest average, 57.58. By contrast, the highest average was the social domain, corresponding to 68.75. It was also noticed that a high number (63) of interviewed reported using some psychotropic medication, being 51 of the antidepressant class. This public need interventions, because the offer of a quality service only happens when there is a good quality of life associated with good physical and psychological health.
