The survey was complited by inviting professionals to participate in focus groups with sessions of two hours duration, with flexible script about favorable and unfavorable conditions to the maintenance of ethical relationships at work and ethics training to face the conflict. The categorical analysis technique was utilized to evaluate data.

As a solution, improving the disciplines of communication skills and medical humanities, a better preparation of teachers and the teaching of technical and scientific expertise are linked to ethical aspects, were suggestions discussed in all academic disciplines. Focus groups concluded that health professionals are more concerned with the diseases than patients in practice dehumanized. Lack of communication skills, coupled with neglect of interpersonal and interprofessional relationships, poor working conditions, conflicts of interest and favor relationship conflicts, promoting errors, complaints, discomfort, discredit to professionals and harm to patients. The professionals themselves have recognized the need to be more supervised and punished.

Both categories showed professional training as insufficient and responsible for the conflict, by not prioritizing ethics or the basic principles of bioethics.
