SuperSUS ACS

The SuperSUS ACS game aims to present how Primary Health Care (PHC) works and is organized within the Unified Health System (SUS).

The game has as its guiding thread the history of Primary Health Care in Brazil, starting in 1991 with the first milestone achieved with the Community Health Agents Program (PACS), with the main character of the game being a Community Health Agent (ACS ). With each challenge overcome, new health professionals are conquered to help the ACS to improve the care of the entire population, for example: nurse, doctor, nursing technician, physiotherapist, psychologist, physical education professional, etc. The challenges involve registering the population at the Basic Health Unit (UBS), visiting pregnant women and bedridden people, going to school and carrying out oral health actions with the children, taking residents to exercise at the Health Academy, meeting people in homeless people who need care, among others. The game scenario takes place in urban, vulnerable, rural and riverside areas to present the player with the great dimension, scope and diversity of PHC in Brazil. Other forms of care with Integrative and Complementary Health Practices (PICS) will be addressed, such as the use of medicinal plants, auriculotherapy and yoga.

The development of new health education strategies with the use of games aims to translate and improve communication with the general population, with the creation of digital tools for easy access and dissemination of health information in a safe and reliable way, expanding the prevention and care network.
