Meanings and senses of Hansen’s disease for health workers from a Vygotskian perspective: a qualitative study
The re-elaboration of meaning can occur when professionals are inserted in the world of work. The socially produced senses and meanings surrounding leprosy are related to its invisibility and late diagnosis. Changing the meanings and senses requires mediation and the use of critical active methodologies in health education, with investments from training bodies, social movements and health services.
