After study about the relevance of problems and ability to governance team, it was prioritized to work on the situation "little available time on the team schedule to planned actions, with emphasis on home visits." This paper aims to present the Action Plan for intervention in the mentioned problem. Considering that the team does not have governance about all the aspects of the problem, the action focused on the process of team work. It was proposed to use theEscala de Coelho, an instrument that intends to classify the family risk of the team coverage area. The use of a suitable instrument for classification of family risk, as the Escala de Coelho, aims to establish objective criteria to the prioritization of home visits, ensuring the optimization of the team resources, the systematization of thework process and to ensure the equity in the performed services. Using the methodology of situational strategic planning, the action plan was established, with the aim of systematizing the process of home visits in the Family Health Team and also the reorganization of work schedules. Several agents were identified as having the needed resources to carry out the action plan and strategic actions were defined so that they could contribute to this goal. The action plan, however, its not just a ready instrument and to effectively achieve the desired results should be monitored and restructured whenever necessary.
