ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE: To describe the role of nurses in the control of Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus in Primary Health Care. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a descriptive and exploratory study with a qualitative field study approach, developed with nurses who worked in the Family Health Strategy of the municipality of Altos, state of Piauí. Seven nurses participated in this study. Data were collected between September and December 2015. For that, an interview script with open questions was used, applied to those who voluntarily agreed to participate in the research. As it involves human beings, this study was submitted to the Research Ethics Committee of Instituto Camillo Filho, with Opinion Nº 1.220.142. RESULTS: When asked about how they developed activities to control hypertension and diabetes, some nurses interviewed reported efforts to carry out the actions of the HIPERDIA Program. Among the reports, the difficulty of user adherence to the Program, the absence of multidisciplinary activities, the partial development of HIPERDIA actions and the performance of just a few techniques for the control and monitoring of hypertension and diabetes can be listed as obstacles. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: Through the reports of the nurses interviewed, a significant effort is perceived to carry out the actions of the HIPERDIA Program, with priority being given to protocols recommended by the Ministry of Health and an active search for hypertensive and diabetic patients within its territory.
