Abstract

The preliminary evaluation of a program of childhood assistance in an urban community is presented. This problem was studied at the Communitary Medical-Social of Vila Lobato - Ribeirão Prêto, S. Paulo (Brazil) during a period of 8 months. The group of children between 0|-2 years had priority. The kind and number of consultations, absences and some diagnostics specially denutrition, diarrhea, feeding error, and upper respiratory tract infection, were analysed. The studies variations are considered good, but a more precise definition is required.
