Abstract

Abstract: The need to apply knowledge in ethics and bioethics in health practice is increasingly emerging, given the socio-cultural transformations that expose workers to dilemmas. In view of this demand, health education is precarious in the quantity and quality of teaching on these topics. To contribute to teaching, this research aimed to establish the academic profile and scientific productivity of teachers in the disciplines of Ethics and Bioethics of undergraduate courses in Speech Therapy in Rio Grande do Sul (RS), discussing the insertion in these areas. It is configured in a documentary, exploratory, descriptive, qualitative and quantitative analysis, based on the curriculum of Lattes Platform of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq). The study points out, among other findings, that only four teachers are speech therapists. It shows a gap between the performance and its academic and scientific productions, with the areas in which they teach. This shows that most teachers do not have any indicators related to ethics and bioethics. It proposes the discussion of themes published in scientific articles: training in Medicine; communication between doctor and patient; teaching ethics for medicine; trust, autonomy and bioethics. It is possible to perceive the urgency of the debate on training to expand this discussion, as it is evident that the teaching of ethics and bioethics in Speech Therapy needs attention.
