Purpose: To describe the perception of the NASF-AB multiprofessional team about their performance. MethodoQualitative and observational analytical study, carried out with 32 professionals from 11 NASF-AB teams in Belém (PA). A semi-structured interview was carried out that dealt with the performance, duties, guidelines, barriers and potential of the multidisciplinary team. The data were analyzed by the ALCEST software. Results: Three classes were identified: "difficulties and barriers" such as lack of resources, lack of security, little training; "Potentialities", primarily multidisciplinary work; and, "team performance" in health prevention and promotion. Conclusion: Although NASF-AB professionals recognize the potential of the multidisciplinary team and that their work is mostly based on prevention and health promotion, barriers are always present, hindering their full performance in PHC.
