Abstract
From the very beginnings of organized health care in Osijek, at the beginning of the 18th century, interventions based on primary health care have been implemented. Military and civil authorities organized health care in a way that it included health care of the public. With an idea of Dr. Andrija Štampar institutions and facilities, which had the assignment to organize health care of the whole population (in population - for population) started to form. Today's Health Centre Osijek started with work in a building, which was constructed in 1939 on the location where it is today. In spite of many organizational forms that had followed after the World War II, Public Health Centre has been significantly increasing the scope of work and number of buildings and locations. During the War for Croatian Independence work maintained on a high level, and afterwards Health Centre Osijek has become a steady basis for primary health care in Osijek and its surroundings.
