The tuberculosis is characterized as a serious decease and affect the poorest regions of the world. Brazil occupies the 16th place in absolute numbers of cases. According to the Ministry of Health people on the streets are 67 times more likely to get sick from tuberculosis compared to the general population. This population is characterized by extreme poverty, interrupted or weak family bond and lack of residence, using the public places and degraded areas as their housing and sustenance. In 2011, the Ministry of Health implemented Street Clinic Teams as a care mode linked to primary health care, to address the different demands and health needs of the population in the streets. The teams offer “on the spot” and itinerantly, comprehensive health care for these people. The objective of this study was the analyses of sense production effect of the street clinic teams regarding to the care of people with tuberculosis. It is a qualitative assessment which took place at São Paulo’s central region. Six individuals took part in this study. The inclusion criteria: Team Nurses, Epidemiologic Surveillance Nurses, Technical Assessors who operate within street clinic teams, who agreed on signing the informed consent. A scripted semi-structured interview was applied for data collection, utilizing an audio recorder in all recorded interviews. The results emerged in four discursive blocks: characterization of care; service structure for TB patient’s care; incentives: cure x decease maintenance and the organization of work. The conclusion is that the care model in use by the investigate teams contribute to guaranteeing access to care, thus increasing early diagnosis, treatment, monitoring and cure of tuberculosis among that population.
