This study aims to determine the factors that influence the use of the public offer of care in the city of Yamoussoukro. The experiment is based on the demands of the health services by a population whose age is between 0 and 14 years. The research is motivated by the low use of public offerings at the national level. The data collection comes in the administration of a household questionnaire by quota method. The identification of determinants is based on the chi2 test and logistic regression. The study reveals a level of recourse to public provision of care of 55.40%, determined essentially by geographical accessibility, medical insurance, knowledge of the offer of care, the perceived seriousness of the disease and the quality of care. These factors make it possible to build a model of recourse to care based on three pillars: quality of care, accessibility and perception of needs.
Author Keywords: public offer of care, use of care, infant-juvenile population, Yamoussoukro.

Abstract: (french)
Cette étude vise à déterminer les facteurs qui influencent le recours à l’offre publique de soins dans la ville de Yamoussoukro. L’expérimentation se fonde sur les sollicitations des services de santé par une population dont l’âge est compris entre 0 et 14 ans. La recherche est motivée par le faible recours à l’offre publique constaté à l’échelle nationale. La collecte des données se décline en l’administration d’un questionnaire-ménage par méthode de quota. L’identification des déterminants s’appuie sur le test de khi2 et la régression logistique. L’étude révèle un niveau de recours à l’offre publique de soins de 55,40%, déterminé essentiellement par l’accessibilité géographique, l’assurance médicale, la connaissance de l’offre de soins, la gravité perçue du mal et la qualité des soins. Ces facteurs permettent de constituer un modèle de recours aux soins basé sur trois piliers: la qualité des soins, l’accessibilité et la perception des besoins.
Author Keywords: offre publique de soins, recours aux soins, population infanto-juvénile, Yamoussoukro.
