To describe the process of Endemic Disease Control Worker (EDCW) integration into the Family Health Strategy.
This was a descriptive cross-sectional study. Data were collected through a self-administered semi-structured questionnaire, from February to May 2017, in four Family Health centers in the urban region of Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil.
57 Community Health Agents (CHW) and eight EDCWs participated. All participants reported providing guidance to property dwellers and 58 carried out mechanical vector control during the inspection of properties, in order to avoid and eliminate possible Aedes aegypti breeding sites. With regard to EDCW integration in the Family Health Strategy, 18 participants highlighted teamwork as a positive aspect; while 15 highlighted lack of autonomy to undertake legal interventions as a negative aspect.
EDCW integration in the Family Health Strategy is feasible, however, adjustments need to be made to optimize activities within the perspective of shared work in the same territorial area.
描述地方病防治人员（EDCW）融入家庭健康战略的过程。
这是一项描述性的横断面研究。2017 年 2 月至 5 月期间，在巴西南马托格罗索州坎波格兰德市区的 4 个家庭健康中心，通过自填式半结构式问卷收集数据。
共有 57 名社区卫生工作者（CHW）和 8 名 EDCW 参与了调查。所有参与者都报告说为居民提供了指导，并且在检查房屋时，58 人进行了机械病媒控制，以避免和消除可能的埃及伊蚊滋生地。关于 EDCW 融入家庭健康战略，18 名参与者强调团队合作是一个积极方面；而 15 名参与者则强调缺乏自主进行法律干预是一个消极方面。
EDCW 融入家庭健康战略是可行的，但需要进行调整，以优化在同一领土区域内共同工作的视角下的活动。
