Mais Saúde
Social support, qualified listening, guidance and responsible referrals to Brazil’s public service network.
Why it matters
Care that happens close to home.
Mais Saúde welcomes families, provides guidance and supports responsible referrals. It is a social-assistance initiative: it is not a clinic, does not perform invasive procedures and does not replace Brazil’s Unified Health System (SUS).
In practice
