Objective: to analyze the structure of the social representation of health for Umbanda fans with a view to approaching transcultural care. Method: qualitative descriptive-exploratory study, based on the structural approach of the Theory of Social Representations and Transcultural Theory by Madeleine Leininger. Participants were captured using the Snowball technique, who responded to an online questionnaire containing sociodemographic characteristics; DUREL scale; and instrument of free evocations. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the evocations using prototypical and similarity analysis. Results: 110 individuals participated, predominantly women (70%), between 29 and 39 years old, and with high religiosity. The prototypical analysis highlighted life, well-being and having faith as probably central and hospital and doctor as contrasting elements. The similarity analysis demonstrated, in addition to the previously and probably central elements, care and the body with centrality behavior. Final considerations: multidimensional conceptions of well-being and quality of life mark this representation, based on high religiosity and transcultural and comprehensive health care.
