This report of experience has the objective of presenting the results of the evaluation work-shops on the implantation of an operating system of CIPESC, which simultaneously describes, validates, quantifies and qualifies the nursing practices in collective health carried out in the scope of extra-internment in the Units of Health of the city of Curitiba, in the State of Paraná. The workshops provided subsidies for identification of the strong points and the difficulties of implementing the CIPESC-Curitiba nomenclature, but at the same time revealed contradictions in the nurses' speeches. It is agreed upon that it is through conscious practice that these contradictions are overcome, and, starting from them, is built a Nursing with potential of intervention in the population's epidemiological profiles.
