To be put into practice, Health Surveillance needs health workers to be prepared in order to operationalize it. The purpose of this article is to describe the perception health professionals have on the contributions of the teaching-service integration for the deployment of Health Surveillance. This is a qualitative study conducted in the Butantã School Health District, in the municipality of São Paulo. Research subjects were physicians and nurses working for health facilities located in the region. Data was collected through interviews and analyzed pursuant to the collective subject discourse technique. The results showed that, according to the health professionals, the teaching-service integration is carried out through the supervision of undergraduate medical and nursing students in routine health facility activities. To the health professionals, the contribution made by the teaching-service integration for Health Surveillance is small and boils down to the students' curricular activities. There is a need for a municipal political project for Health Surveillance, and the academy could assist in its preparation. The conclusion is that in order for there to be change in the care practices, it is important to build a political-pedagogical project in partnership with managers, workers, teachers, and students
