One of the proposals of the Family Health Strategy (FHS) is to promote comprehensive care for families, so that there is an adequate interaction between health professionals and people in the individual, family and collective aspects. This study aims to identify the type of interaction between these professionals and families treated at the Family Health Unity (FHU) in a county of the state of Minas Gerais. The study was submitted and approved by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of the Jequitinhonha and Mucuri. Data were collected through structured interviews recorded for later analysis based on the method of content analysis. The results were divided into four ways of interaction: home visits, consultations, talk and work of community health workers. This work concluded that the interaction between health professionals and families contributes to the work of the FHS.
