Primary health care has the mission of reaching an adequate status of physical, mental and social welfare in persons, families and communities with a wide participation of social actors, both intra and extra sector ones, through actions like promotion and prevention, where different programs are established with a main factor for their development: communication. For the intra sector actors (family physician and nurse and the rest of the basic work group) it implies the necessity of taking measures to reach the necessary development and skills in the aspects of the communication forms, levels and ways, contributing to the level of influence exerted on persons, families and communities to educate, inform, convince and explain on the topic of healthy individual and social behaviors. These behaviors give persons, families and communities the advantages and necessary elements for improving their life quality and preventing diseases, besides reaching aims, goals and aspirations of the rest of the organizations, sectors and institutions influencing on health and life quality.

Palabras clave : primary health care; communication; interpersonal communication; promotion; inter sectoriality.
