Abstract
When you work in a health centre, the methods of primary, secondary and tertiary prevention which you use will be more effective if you know something about the people you are serving and whether they are users or non-users of health services. In this unit you will learn some ways of measuring users and non-users of health services so that the people who need health services will receive them.
