The selected themes are related to "Lifestyle Medicine" which focuses on areas such as healthy eating, physical activity, sleep health, toxic control, mental health, and relationships, being priority areas to work on with hypertensive and diabetic patients. These areas were chosen as guiding principles for the practices developed here.

The chosen methodology was Situational Strategic Planning — PES, and the method of rapid estimation with a meeting with the health team to resolve the problems. The results are a proposal for a plan to be adopted by users with chronic diseases in the territory. The conclusions that can be drawn are that both pharmacological and non-pharmacological measures directly interfere with the control of Blood Pressure as well as Blood Glucose, and should be considered a priority by the patients being monitored.
