【 摘 要 】

The authors evaluate the Adolescent Health Clinic in the Emaús community in Belém, Pará, Brazil with regard to coverage, adequacy, accessibility, and utilization for the period 1994 to 1996. Coverage was calculated on the basis of clinical records and information collected from the target population. Adequacy was analyzed by comparing the service performance with goals established by PAHO/WHO for this kind of institution. Accessibility and utilization patterns were evaluated from information obtained by a population-based survey among adolescents living in the area. Results showed: a good degree of program adequacy vis-à-vis the final purpose, although some adjustments are needed, especially in human resources; lack of barriers to user access; reasonable coverage, despite the low proportion of consultations by adolescents; and utilization pattern compatible with the service provision profile, mainly directed towards curative and individual care. Recommendations are made to revise the hegemonic health care model to emphasize preventive, collective, and educational activities.
