Abstract

Systemic Arterial Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus are the main population risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, which is why they constitute public health problems, where about 60 to 80% of cases can be treated in the basic network. The present intervention project aimed to improve the health care of users with hypertension and diabetes in the Dom Bosco Family Health Strategy 1. For this purpose, a bibliographic search was carried out in the scientific databases of the health area. Situational strategic planning was also used, which consists of a quick estimate of the problems observed, definition of the priority problem, definition of critical nodes and finally, the construction of the intervention plan, with a description of the actions aimed at reducing the incidence of hypertension and diabetes in the population. It was evident that the team's participation, the adoption of a multidimensional and multidisciplinary approach, in addition to a patient-centered medicine are essential aspects for the actions to be efficient and effective.
