The formative role of the Unified Health System in the processes of teaching-service integration has been establishing Multiprofessional Residences in Health (MRH) as one of its strategies for strengthening public health policies in Brazil, having the interprofessional performance as one of its main interfaces. Professional nutritionists have gained space in the health teams to contribute with their specific knowledge and, as a health professional, in all perspectives of the Health Care Network. The study evaluated the perception on interprofessional training and the development of competences for collaborative practices of resident nutritionists inserted in the context of the Multiprofessional Residencies in Health in the Brazilian Northeast. This is an exploratory cross-sectional study with data from a reality, descriptive-analytical character and quantitative nature. Data were collected during the year 2015 from electronic questionnaire hosted in the Google Docs tool, through Likert type attitudinal scale. The target audience of the survey was composed of residents of the second year of MRH in the Northeastern states. For statistical analysis, the non-parametric Mann-Whitney statistical test was used. The results showed that resident nutritionists have the same understanding as other residents of other professional categories about the development of collaborative practices in MRH. It was observed that, even in the face of the challenges posed by the residency programs, the residents consider that the Multiprofessional Residences in Health allow the development of competences for a collaborative practice in health in the SUS context.
