RESUMEN
The current status of primary health institutions and personnels in China were analyzed based on the data from China Health and Family Planning Statistics Yearbook 2016 and China Health Statistics Summary 2018. By the end of 2017, there were 253 000 general practitioners in China, accounting for 7.46% of all practicing physicians or assistant physicians in the country(339 000). In 2017, the number of general practice residents was 8 517, accounting for 11.92% of all residents(71 430), which was 1.70% lower than that in 2016 (8 664) . The registered nurses in primary health care institutions were not sufficient, even the proportion of nursing to medical staff did not reach 1 ∶ 1 in primary settings. The distribution of primary health care institutions was not balanced. In the township hospitals and village clinics the number of practicing physicians or assistant physicians was far from meeting the requirement of the service. In view of the current problems, the social resources would be applied to promote the development of primary health care institutions and to improve the primary medical services in multiple ways such as personnel training, hardware construction, network construction and financial support, etc.

Se realizó un estudio de evaluación de los recursos sociales en algunos ancianos ingresados en el Servicio de Geriatría del Hospital Universitario "Dr. Ambrosio Grillo Portuondo" de Santiago de Cuba, de enero a junio del 2010, para lo cual se les caracterizó conforme a las variables: edad, sexo y escolaridad, y se utilizó como instrumento de valoración la escala del cuestionario multidimensional de asesoramiento funcional. En la serie hubo similitud en cuanto al sexo, predominó el grupo etario de 60-69 años, la mayoría de los pacientes tenía grado de escolaridad primario, las relaciones sociales no eran satisfactorias, y los recursos sociales difirieron según el sexo y la edad. Se concluyó que la citada escala es un instrumento que ayuda a determinar con mayor precisión el deterioro de los recursos sociales de los ancianos; además constituye un aporte social, porque sobre la base de lo obtenido en su aplicación se pueden realizar estrategias comunitarias y así mejorar el cuidado a este grupo poblacional.
