Abstract

The Family Health Strategy (FHS) is the materialization of a new conception of health. Today, health shall be related to the population's quality of life, which consists of the set of goods, which include food, work, income level, among others. List the elements that will allow health is achieved or not is a big challenge. The Community Health Agent (CHA) is the link between the ESF and the community where he meets and faces, as health professional and member of the working class, the same difficulties of access and resoluteness that underlie the public health system. Thus, the aim of this study is to report the experience as an intern in a UBS related to the perception that the ACS have about DSS in their area. It consists of a descriptive study, the experience of modality of lived in a family health unit. The experience of the conversation circles with ACS on the social determinants of health approach permitted the determination of the three classes: Style of life of individuals, social networks and community and Conditions of life and work. From the living experience, it became evident that the ACS understand what are SDH and realize the limitations and advances, it existing. Given the complexity that sets out the DSS, it is necessary a comprehensive look at the effects that they cause, proposing investment in human capital, an ideological critical reflection of society as a whole which prioritizes social relations and so life. It is believed therefore that health this embraced the social determinants and health community workers have a key role in the effectiveness of the universalization of health in Brazil.
