child's vaccination bulletin, caderneta de vacinação
I'm translating a child's vaccination bulletin (Caderneta Espelho do Menino).
On the cover, some child's personal information is written, such as name, date of birth, mother's name, adress and so on. After that, there is: "Unidade Básica de Referência". Is it the same as 'Health Care Unit'? or 'Immunobiological Reference Unit'?
How could I translate it in a way people could understand that abroad?
Thanks in advance!

Acredito que "Unidade Básica de Referência" se refere ao local/connsultorio/posto de saude/hospital onde a crianca costuma ser vacinada.
