Data analysis took place through thematic analysis.

Regarding facilities, they reported the availability of Personal Protective Equipment. Conclusion: it is highlighted that it is necessary to reflect on the subject, on the part of all involved in the assistance, because it is understood that the risks exist and their prevention needs to be encouraged through continuous education.
