Abstract

Objective: To describe the experience of nursing students during field practice in the health discipline of Amazonian populations. Experience report: In order to carry out this practice, the students used two boats as a form of transportation and accommodation, both provided by the Municipal Health Secretariat of the municipality, in order to provide health care to the riverside residents, since they have difficulty in access to care due to location. In the course of practice, several activities were carried out, such as: nursing consultations, health education, distribution of basic food baskets and different games and games. Final considerations: This experience provided academics with a holistic view of the difficulties faced by this population. Participating in the elaboration and execution of activities provided us with a unique experience of professional and personal growth, rich in knowledge and learning about the language, culture, religion and habits of people living in the rural area.
