Reception with risk rating in ready care unit: an experience report

Aim: To report the experience of a practical activity of nursing students in the host process with risk classification in an Emergency Care Unit (UPA). Method: This is a descriptive study, which follows the experience report model, carried out in an Emergency Care Unit inNortheastern Brazil, in May 2014. Results: It was possible to understand the nursing work process in the unit, and, therefore, to develop health education activities to the users in relation to the dynamics of the unit and to the practice of reception by risk rating. The development of the action was carried out in a systematic and humanized manner, thus reducing the waiting time for the users. Among the difficulties encountered there were overcrowding, incipient physical structure, lack of material resources, among others. Conclusion: The experience allowed students to reflect on the practice of host with risk classification and to understand the nurse's role as an agent in this process.
