The present study aims to evaluate the Family Health Program (FHP) and the influence of this in the community João Sampaio, in Maceio / Alagoas, Brazil. We analyze the socioeconomic and cultural relationship with the health and disease process. It is a quantitative, cross-sectional and descriptive project, that used as a research method the model of “A card” of the FHP. The study demonstrated several variants, including: social and economic variants, and variants of mentioned diseases which proved to be very valuable in the development of a health diagnosis, confirming the complexity of health and disease processes. The variants were analyzed in Epi Info. We observed some contrasts, but the community generally presented itself with good schooling, a good level of general health and a good economic condition. The residents have good access to health, either in the basic health unit (BHU) or in hospitals and presents with low prevalence of disease, with the highest incidence and prevalence of disease related to the elderly. A significant portion of the population does not use the BHU in case of illness, using mainly hospitals, both public and private. We observed that many residents complained about the service offered by BHU, for lack of structure and bad health treatment. It is noticed that due to non-residents' satisfaction with the service offered by the BHU, many use the service offered by health plans. The fact that the community has a good basic sanitation favors a good health, these factors are inextricably related. Finally it was concluded that the health-disease process is determined by several factors that are inextricably related. Can also refer to the roles of the BHU is not being fully met, which affect the monitoring of health and disease process in the community.
