Chronic non-communicable diseases (NCD) are a public health problem in Brazil. In addition, NCDs is more strongly associated with common mental disorders than was each NCD individually. This study is about the implementation and execution through the university extension project “harm reduction and mental health: hypertation control and health education” developed at Images of the Unconscious Museum, Brazil.

Measure the prevalence of hypertation, verify the association with chronic NCDs, educate about risk behavior and improve to psychosocial rehabilitation.

A socio-demographic and blood pressure profile was constructed. We identify hypertation on 33 patients. After the diagnosis, the family health unit was contact to construct a clinical care plan. We distribute health educational material about clinical diseases.

Thirty-six percent patients was identify with hypertation; once had high blood pleasure and rejected any intervention; 68% have family rates of hypertation and 100% referred low salt on diet. A book storytelling was constructed to give orientations about health lifestyle. We conducted therapeutic workshop to highlighting the creative, imaginative and expressive potential of the users on health behavior.

We identify low blood pressure after the activities and a new health style after the orientation process.
