Abstract
The authors report on the results of a Survey Carried out in four areas in Center Cameroon. Health gets a major position within the concerns of the population to protect it, they prefer the classical and official system of health Care rather than the primary Health care System. Self-medication is also a preferred solution. In the rural milieu, they often pay a visit to a traditional practitioner. When they have to take a decision, geographical situation and money problem play both a major role.Keywords: Africa; Africa South Of The Sahara; Behavior; Cameroon; Comparative Studies; Decision Making; Delivery Of Health Care; Developing Countries; French Speaking Africa; Health; Health Services; Health Surveys; Medicine; Medicine, Traditional; Middle Africa; Research Methodology; Self Care; Studies; Treatment
