The indicators of care results, quality and clinical safety and their presentation were analysed. ResultsPreparation of a table including 19 public health services entries with specific indicators/records of nursing activity for each one, based on 56 institutional websites.The most frequently resulting profile of indicators is activity shown disaggregated by health areas, from 2019, in “PDF” format, without gender or age vision, focused on the number of consultations, frequentation and healthcare pressure in primary care. ConclusionsThe supply of health indicators presents a great state variability.
