Résumé anglais This article continues the research on Fordlândia and Belterra, integrating into the investigations on Health Heritage in the Amazon carried out within the Graduate Program in Architecture and Urbanism at UFPA. Although the construction of Ford's enterprise for latex production in the early 20th century is widely known, there is little discussion about the Henry Ford Hospitals, built to serve the company's employees. Despite tensions between foreign health models and local practices, these hospitals were a reference in healthcare until the industrial project ended in 1945. Thus, the article investigates the post-deactivation period of these units, analyzing the consequences of the deterioration of these infrastructures on local healthcare assistance. The method is qualitative, including historical-documentary and photographic surveys, discourse analysis of residents associated with the perception of these places' ambiances in contemporary times, according to the perspective of the Ambiances.net Network.
