Item Whatsapp® como ferramenta de promoção da saúde com diabetes: relato de experiência(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2019) Stringhini, Maria Luiza Ferreira; Chagas, Jordana de Sousa; Reis, Maria Júlia Mendes dos; Brito, Paula Ribeiro Toscano de; Souza, Daniela Santana deThis report aims to share a successful experience of using the WhatsApp® application in education, highlighting the ease of access to information and the potential resource in health promotion. The cell phone numbers of participants in the “Waiting Room: Educational Actions in Diabetes” extension project are registered and weekly messages are sent out informing about self-care and feeding to patients with diabetes, using a transmission route. During the period of the project 77 messages were sent to participants. After evaluation, 94.1% of the participants considered the messages to help answer questions about nutrition and diabetes. This experience shows how communication technologies are able to strengthen health education strategies, providing greater interaction between service, university and community. We hope that this action will encourage other health teams to explore the informational potential of social networks, which needs to be fully exploited.
