About this title

Synopsis

This book examines how local public health departments continue to adapt to meet the public's health needs. It describes how available health resources, technologies and delivery systems are faced with an accelerating rate of change in population health needs. In-depth case studies in local public health practice and a public health assessment survey are provided.

It includes substantial material examining the public health contributions made by other community organizations. The book is more a study of public health practice than of strictly local health departments.

Local public health practitioners, managers in health fields and students of public health and health administration will identify promising new inter-organizational models, strategies and trends from the material presented here.
