Abstract

Hospitals are very important for the health system. The objective of this qualiquantitative research was to visualize patients' social representation, which profited of the interaction between public universities and hospitals. 105 patients in the waiting rooms at the Integrated Clinic at FOA _ UNESP in the first semester 2005 answered to the question: "How did you know about the service at FOA?" -  in opened interviews,  recorded or written. A collective speech of the subject represented the field that allouds a society to speak  as one. Twenty three of all patients have been sent to FOA by Health Assistance Centers in Araçatuba (7) and region (16) and twenty one patients assisted in  Araçatuba by emergency. We can observe that the interaction between the public universities and general hospitals is a reality.
