The present study aims to identify difficulties for the nurse so that he can reflect and create strategies to improve the quality of the nursing consultation and follow-up for patients with leprosy and to understand the perception of the patient in relation to the attendance structure and nursing follow-up. From the results we note that in the nursing consultation, the creation of a bond of confidence was sought with the client with the objective of receiving information on their treatment as well as on any disabilities. Regarding the difficulties confirmed by the nurses, they are related to the organization conditions of health services which causes a high demand. In relation to the perception of patients regarding the nursing consultation it was shown, in general, quite satisfactory.
