The care to users of renal replacement therapies involves a mobilization of skills that transcend the technical instituted knowledge because it imposes numerous restrictions on users. From the perspective of the individual from the rural context hemodialysis also means having to face geographical and cultural distance from health care. The study aimed to understand the meaning of hemodialysis treatment from the perspective of individuals from the rural context. This is a study of exploratory and descriptive qualitative approach. It corresponds to a subproject of research coordinated by Prof. Dr. Eda Schwartz, who received support from CNPq as Senior Fellow of the project "The daily life of rural families in the presence of chronic kidney disease: understanding based on Grounded Theory." The study was conducted in nephrology service of a teaching hospital and in their homes. Participants were three individuals, and four interviews with each were conducted, two on nephrology service and two in the homes of individuals, these ones recorded and later transcribed verbatim. The subjects agreed to participate in the study by signing the consent form. The research project was approved by the Ethics Committee under the number 1096/2011 and the Division of Continuing Education of the institution in which users were undergoing treatment. For data analysis we used the categorization of Grounded Theory described by Charmaz. As Theoretical Perspective we used Symbolic Interactionism. Study participants were three men, natives of Pelotas, Herval and Canguçu, aged 55 and 73 years of and schooling with the incomplete elementary school, two were married and had children and one was single. The conceptual categories were: being employed in the context of the field, sensing something wrong, moving to the city, allowing for new interactions, venturing transplant, or pretending not to do hemodialysis, holding a piece of land and seeing life through different eyes. The categories found were in agreement with other studies also hemodialysis patients, however the values formed in the interaction of these individuals from the perspective of the rural context remitted to better cope with the disease. Thus the land was the symbol that appeared in the speeches having more significance to character formation and conformed well as what remained of interaction with everyday life before the need for dialysis. The findings of this study have the potential to encourage health professionals, especially nurses, to improve their care practice. Since relevant issues as adherence to treatment is a reflection of the perspective of individuals about the disease and treatment, and those influenced by the contexts in which they arise.
