Abstract

This paper is a summary of an organizational proposal for rural health care prepared between January and April 2007 at the request of Llanquihue Chiloé Palena Health Service. We did a research and qualitative diagnosis of rural health situation in Health Service area. Our analysis is based in a unitary hypothesis: rural health has lost its aim. From the diagnosis we recognized territorial identity and local knowledge as essentials tools for aim´s recovery. The proposal is then focused on the build-up of public, autonomious and territorial health teams.
