Which of the following is a major challenge for health care provider education today?

b. Expanding the curriculum to allow additional experiences in community health settings outside the hospital
c. Increasing course emphasis on environmental influences on health

ESSAYBID ANSWER

ANS: D
There is an obvious need for a primary care curriculum that prepares students to meet the needs of aggregates through community strategies that include understanding of statistical data and epidemiology. Primary health care and health promotion rather than acute care treatment would be emphasized. Such a curriculum would move the focus from the individual to a broader population approach.
