RESUMO
The remnants of quilombos, individuals of African descent, have faced several barriers throughout its history, either due to prejudice imposed by society, or the non-fulfillment of their rights guaranteed in the 1988 Constitution, such as access to health services. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the health care offered to quilombo communities in the northern region of Tocantins. This is an exploratory, descriptive study with a qualitative approach, including field research and focus group, carried out with 58 quilombo remnants people from communities in the northern region of Tocantins. Data collection was carried out between from October 2017 to July 2018, through semi-structured interviews. We found that these communities have limited access to health services, in addition to a negative perception of the assistance offered to the health of their population and the commitment of managers. Therefore, access to health and assistance received by the studied communities required to be prioritized since the care provided is not unique and has not met the health demands and needs of the remaining quilombos in northern Tocantins, Brazil.

The concept of promotion of health is one of the main axes of current health policies in Brazil. The adoption of this concept implies a change in the care model involving valuing a greater autonomy of subjects to work improving their conditions of life. From this perspective, several elements of health practices have to be reviewed, sexuality among them. Thus, we aimed at producing sexuality concepts as of the knowledge of women cared for in a health unity. This is a qualitative study adopting a social poetic approach. The results pointed out several affections that involve the concept of sexuality going beyond the biological aspect. We understand that this study may help professionals caring for women in a health unity because it broadens the concept of sexuality allowing for reflection on the nursing practice in collective health.

El concepto de promoción de la salud es uno de los ejes centrales de las políticas actuales de la salud en Brasil. La adopción de este marco conceptual significa revisar el modelo asistencial, valorizando una mayor autonomía de los sujetos para actuar en la mejoría de sus condiciones de vida. Consecuentemente, diversos elementos de las prácticas de salud necesitan ser revisados, entre ellos el de la sexualidad. Siendo así, el objetivo fue producir conceptos de sexualidad a partir de los conocimientos de las mujeres atendidas en una unidad de salud. Es un estudio cualitativo, que utiliza el abordaje socio poético. Los resultados indican una diversidad de afectos que se refieren al concepto de la sexualidad, los que van más allá del aspecto biológico. Entendemos que este estudio puede ayudar al profesional que atiende mujeres en la unidad de salud, ya que amplía el concepto de sexualidad, permitiendo una reflexión sobre la práctica desarrollada por la enfermera en la salud comunitaria.
