OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the socioeconomic aspects and the quality of life of hypertensive and diabetic individuals of the program HIPERDIA of a Basic Health Unit (UBS).MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty seven users of the program HIPERDIA participated in the study. SF-36 Questionnaire and a socioeconomic evaluation file were used. RESULTS: The average age was 56,93 ± 10,14, 74% are women, 63% are married, 63% have systemic arterial hypertension (SAH), 22,2% have SAH and diabetes, 14,8% diabetes, and 70,4% have an income of 1 to 4 minimum wages. The medium values of the SF-36 questionnaire domains were above 50 points. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: SAH is predominant. Women are the majority, probably because the search for, and compliance with treatment are greater within the female gender. QV was positive, which may be a reflection of the follow-up undertaken at the UBS.
