Collection of data was made through statistical tools like: surveys, interviews and guided observance, applied to health employees and women between 15 and 64 years old who came to the health center to make a Cervical Cytology Test. We used a non-probabilistic random sampling with a total of 214 patients as population study. In conclusion we show the presence of several errors on certain parameters evaluated like: level of coverage, patient recruitment, collection process, delivery of samples and delivery time of results. We also noted lack of knowledge in the personnel that was in charge of the execution of the research. These reasons made us to take the decision of set up a proposal of intervention based on continuos training and evaluation of the program.
