This dissertation deals with the everyday life and health practices of professionals of hospital complex of Infecto-Contagious Diseases Dr. Clementino Fraga of the city of João Pessoa-PB. Aimed to unravel: what health services offered by this institution; as health professionals deal with the management of risks facing the work situations with stigmatized diseases like Aids; analyze the types of interactions among professionals/professionals/professionals and users seeking to understand how the notion of risk applies in those relationships and, as health workers build the field of experience and living in an institution that demands procedures that can lead to contamination by the HIV virus. Field research resulted in Ethnography of routine and the dynamics of the service performed from a prolonged investigation into processes connected to attendances users with HIV/Aids in the ambulatory sector. The fieldwork was possible to observe the therapeutic itinerary of people with HIV within the institution, as well as risk perceptions of professionals in relation to its work. The information revealed that there is some dilution of risk perception when the institution and services performed become perceived as familiar to professionals, having as a counterpoint to this reality the figure of the "new professional" for which everything is unknown and dangerous. I realized that in the context in the tariff area of familiarity and the unknown affects not only the perception of the risks, but the way the professionals interact and use their tools in everyday life. In turn, field experience has shown that risk perceptions are built daily at health services, buoyed both by mastery of technique and experience, as well as for interaction with users. Finally, the information revealed that when there is a limit situation of an accident at work, the professionals trigger some sort of risk assessment based, on the one hand, a reflection on the real possibilities of contamination and, on the other, a moral judgment about users from an analysis of his "social behavior".
