Resumo: The increase in the prison population and, consequentially, the growing demand for a greater number of prisons is a very controversial subject nowadays in Brazil. At the same time, investments are being made aimed at public health policies within these establishments through the insertion of prison health teams, based on the Plano Nacional de Saúde no Sistema Penitenciário PNSSP (National Penitentiary Health System Plan). The goal of this study was to learn about the experiences of health professionals working in penitentiary health units in Rio Grande do Sul and the context in which public health policies are being implemented in this field. The constructionist point of view is used as a starting point, based on the idea that social processes sustain the knowledge produced and reveal the importance of discussing the naturalization of social practices. Research was undertaken beginning with a qualitative approach and employing data collection method involving narrative interviews. Interviews were conducted with professionals that work in penitentiary health units in Rio Grande do Sul, all with a higher education and contracted by the government. In total, eight interviews were conducted. The analyses followed Schütze's proposal. The results show that the majority of professionals have an education geared towards the area of public policies and a few participants presented previous experiences in situations of social vulnerability, providing evidence of approximation with life aspects of their work in prisons. Results further highlighted the difficulties and challenges presented in the relationships between the health and security teams, and seek to approach integrated perspectives of both fields of work. In this sense, including the diverse discourses involving health in prisons was very relevant in being able to comprehend the production of care in the most diverse social spaces of security and in their connection with the network outside of prisons. Finally, the research sought to present reflections regarding possible transformations in the way relationships occur in prisons, in view of the fact that increasing health initiatives results in the establishment of more comprehensive communication between prisons and society
