Abstract
Aim: to know the perception of health professionals about violence against women. Method: a descriptive and qualitative study carried out with members of the Guanambi Family Health Strategy teams in the state of Bahia, Brazil. The researchers collected the data through a semi structured interview, systematized it using content analysis and performed its analysis based on a theoretical reference on the subject. Results: the following three categories emerged: Conceptualizing violence against women; (Lack of) knowledge about notification and reporting; (Lack of) knowledge about the law that punishes those who commit violence against women. Discussion: the studied professionals present difficulties in understanding concepts, such as reporting and notification, and superficial knowledge about the Maria da Penha Law, which can hinder orientation and referral processes. Conclusion: we observed the need for permanent education with an emphasis to the notification, recognition and management of violence cases to improve indicators and empower women to cope with them.
