The objective of this study was to analyze the experiences of women in situation of violence seeking care in the health sector and in the intersectoral network, using a qualitative approach. The participants were 14 women assisted in a Women’s Care Reference Center due to situations of violence in intimate relationships. In-depth interviews and documentary research were conducted on the service charts. Content analysis evidenced inappropriate practices on the part of the professionals and the organization, and a structure with several services to assist these women. It is necessary to establish an appropriate coordination of the intersectoral network to meet both the practical aspects of coping with violence and the care of physical harm to these population, ensuring their rights and safety, and offering support to the suffering experienced.
