Objective: to map the indicators of Good Nursing Practices in
Primary Health Care, from the perspective of Collective Health,
reported to the vulnerable social groups. Method: this is a
scoping review according to the PRISMA Extension for Scoping
Reviews. The searches were carried out in 2020 in six databases
and in a virtual library. Independent reviewers performed the
reading of the full texts, as well as treatment, analysis and
synthesis of the content. Results: a total of 13 articles were
found, the first from 2007 and the last from 2020. The data
were classified according to the following empirical categories:
assessment and control of health conditions (3 indicators);
assessment of knowledge about health (3 indicators); use
of sociodemographic characteristics to estimate risks or
vulnerabilities (3 indicators); assessment and monitoring of
health needs (5 indicators); promotion of safety and trust in
health services (6 indicators); and assessment of the care
process (4 indicators). Conclusion: the articles showed a
variety of indicators that assess the interventions carried
out in the context of Nursing in Primary Care with vulnerable
social groups. These indicators are related to health conditions,
especially those of the biopsychological body, reported to
vulnerable populations, especially women, children, adolescents
and older adults.
