Abstract

Introduction: Chronic non-communicable diseases constitute the group of diseases of greatest magnitude in the country, affecting especially the most vulnerable populations, such as those with low income and education. The main groups of chronic non-communicable diseases are circulatory diseases, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension and their modifiable risk factors are smoking, alcohol, physical inactivity, unhealthy eating and obesity. Coping with NCDs has been a priority action of the Ministry of Health, aiming to prepare Brazil to face and stop NCDs by 2022 and in São José da Lage the NCD rates, especially in the group of elderly people, assume alarming levels, requiring immediate intervention by local health managers and teams. Objective: The purpose of this intervention project is to institute in the FHS of Juriti - São José da Laje, the action “More Health” as an important instrument to face NCDs in this health territory. Methodology: This is an intervention project that will work to improve NCD indicators among ESF users Amaury Vasconcelos de Andrade - Juriti, Municipality of São José da Lage - Alagoas. Project foresees the development of monthly activities by the multiprofessional team (CHA, doctor, nurse, dentist, nutritionist, physical educator) in the community that covers this team. The actions will be organized in: 1) Educational actions - lectures in the community, with the community health agents, which can be carried out during the home visit, in the USF, in the community associations, through the transmission of guidelines with a sound car and radio community; 2) Actionintervention - Conducting "aulões" of physical activity in the community, carrying out a task force of physical and laboratory exams with mobilization of the entire local community, providing guidance on healthy eating and living habits. Expected results: This project is expected to contribute to reducing the indicators of illness and complications associated with CNCD. It is also believed that this activity has the potential to strengthen collaborative work among members of the health team and contribute to greater community involvement with self-care and with the health unit. However, for this instrument to serve as an effective tool for the care and control of chronic non-communicable diseases, it is necessary that the actions be implemented according to the reality experienced by the team.
