title: [Health education within the scope of family-health evaluation].
abstract: Multiphasic health screening an increasingly used preventive tool, may represent major milestones in health natural history of individuals as well as groups (in addition to their own specific goals) in terms of basis for a preference educational action. Based on their own experience in such a screening Center in France working mainly with families, the operating of the health screening itself is shown by the authors to offer a nice back up for health education. The concluding talk with families, specific to this Center's policy yields a unique opportunity for all family members to ask questions on their health problems, as well as for each physician involved to promote changes in their health behaviour. This kind of educational action is exacting for the physician, who has to be able to hear and to communicate easily, and who has to be specifically trained for it.
