ANDRADE, Ademilde Machado et al. Home visit: validation of an instrument for recording and monitoring individuals and families. Epidemiol. Serv. Saúde [online]. 2014, vol.23, n.1, pp.165-175. ISSN 1679-4974.
OBJECTIVE: to develop and validate an instrument for home visits (B-VD Form) aimed at monitoring visits made by Primary Health Care network Family Health teams in the city of Aracaju, State of Sergipe, Brazil. METHODS: B-VD Form validation was conducted by health professionals using the Delphi technique and Likert scale. The data items were also grouped into three dimensions. Cronbach's alpha was used to investigate the internal consistency of the form's items. RESULTS: a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.95 was obtained for the internal consistency of the 17 variables analyzed. The coefficient was 0.94 for dimension I (user identification); 0.93 for dimension II (aspects of the territory) and 0.82 for dimension III (home visit). RESULTS: the B-VD form was validated by the Family Health teams in the city of Aracaju, proving to be a useful tool for monitoring families.
