Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus is a disease characterized by elevated blood glucose (hyperglycemia), it develops when the body cannot control the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood, this can happen if the body does not produce enough amounts of the hormone called insulin. The objective of this work is to propose an intervention project to increase the level of knowledge about Diabetes Mellitus of patients seen in the Family Health Team Roberto Correia, in the municipality of São Miguel dos Campos, Alagoas. The methodology used was the situational diagnosis of the territory and a bibliographic review, carried out with scientific articles contained in the Virtual Health Library and Scientific Electronic Library Online, as well as documents from public agencies (ministries, secretariats, etc.). Based on the survey carried out, an intervention plan was prepared, where critical nodes were identified and classified, according to their degree of urgency to be faced. We hope that with this intervention proposal, the multiprofessional team will be able to guide, educate and raise awareness of patients with diabetes and the population of São Miguel, emphasizing the quality of life of people, with the support of the community, social and government.
