Almost 6 families in the Pau da Lima Sanitary District are served by the Vida Plena Community Complex (CCVP), a teaching-care unit created and maintained by the Hólon Society, in partnership with the Bahiana.

Its working matrix emphasizes daily care and teaching, interdisciplinarity in professional actions, multidimensionality of problems (through the paradigm of complexity) and intersectoriality of actions.

The success of the initiative can be evaluated by the continuous expansion of the number of undergraduate students who started to intern through the Bahiana and the creation of residency programs. Currently, Multiprofessional Residencies in Individual and Family Clinics are offered, implemented in partnership with the Bahiana, through scholarships financed by the Health Department of the State of Bahia. All teaching activities are supervised by professors from different categories, such as: medicine, nursing, dentistry, physiotherapy, psychology, nutrition and social assistance.

The CCVP also maintains an agreement with the Municipal Health Department, with the aim of establishing technical cooperation, without any financial link between the parties.
