O objetivo deste texto é contribuir para a reflexão sobre a importância de experiências locais em saúde, com enfoque na formação multiprofissional, no processo de trabalho, na atenção e assistência primária de diferentes povos do cenário Amazônico. Para isso, trouxemos elementos do campo da saúde coletiva, como diversificação cultural, territorial e social, os aspectos espaciais e organizacionais que influenciam diretamente no atendimento e na estrutura das unidades de saúde na Atenção Primária neste contexto. A Região Amazônica, especialmente, os territórios das comunidades do rio Tapajós e Arapiuns, no município de Santarém, no Oeste do Estado do Pará vão elucidar as dificuldades no acesso aos Serviços de Assistência à Saúde – SAS e os desafios ainda permanentes para a implementação da Política Nacional de Saúde Integral das Populações do Campo, da Floresta e Águas – PNSIPCFA. O modo de vida da população dessa região, que é do campo, da floresta e das águas se mostra intimamente relacionado com o ambiente e a natureza, no entanto, as contradições do pensamento econômico ultraneoliberal que avançam no setor da saúde reconfiguram as necessidades em saúde.
