Historical Context: The “Full Management” structure has been firmly established in municipal administration for at least a decade. In 2015, the then-director of Full Management, Elaine Negreiros, temporarily took charge of the Department of Health, highlighting the integration between that sector and the overall management of the department.

Integration with the Department of Health: The Picuí Department of Health, currently under the leadership of Secretary Cléristom Mendes, is responsible for coordinating all SUS activities in the municipality, including the administration of health facilities, epidemiological surveillance, and primary care programs. The Full Management sector provides administrative and financial support for the implementation of these policies.

Service Structure: The contact number for Full Management (3371-2827) is different from the general number for the Health Department (3371-2374). In-person service at the Department is available at Rua Galdino Pinheiro, No. 26, Centro, Monday through Thursday, from 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
