Objetive: Describing the meaning of the dyad based on the uncommunicable chronic disease, allowing to recognize the own values from the care interaction. Method: Phenomenological-hermeneutic study analyzed through the analysis of the interpretative phenomenology based on the proposal of Van Manen. Approved by the Surcolombiana University ethics committee. Results: Six dyads were interviewed.
