Possible 1 solutions to pionlems
ol rural health were suggested
leccntiy by Dr Charles 0
Crawford of The Pennsylvania
State University Such solutions
center around funding lor needed
health services, improved
transportation to sources ol
health care, and greater use of
physicians’ assistants and
nurses
In general, a strong need also
exists for effective health
education programs among rural
residents, Dr Crawford ob
served. Utilizing the findings of
several national studies, he said
the importance of regular
physical examinations should be
stressed in any educational
program. Other important
elements of a health education
program, he said, should be

elements of a health education

Solutions Outlined For
Rural Health Problems
(rolling overweight conditions,
hypertension, and diabetes
His comments were published
in a recent issue of “Penn
sylvania Health,” a quarterly
publication of the Pennsylvania
Department of Health
A promising solution to the
shortage of physicians appears to
be greater use of physician’s
assistants, “medex” personnel,
or nurses. These persons may
work with the physician, or work
at some outpost care center away
from the doctor’s office Such
persons keep in touch with the
physician, and the physician
makes periodic visits to the
outpost care center.
Transportation to a source of
health care is often very limited
in rural areas, especially among
older persons, he pointed out.
Experiments with “mini-buses”
as a form of public transportation
have been started in several
rural areas of the country. These
should continue, Dr. Crawford
suggested, with careful

Another alternative is the use
of mobile cure units enublmg
health care personnel to "nde
circuit” m ruial areas
Significant problems in using
mobile units are the time lost by
physicians while traveling and
lack of complete back-up
facilities for quality care
“Making the mobile unit a part
of a well organized, com
prehensive care program, and
staffing it with capable
physicians’ assistants and
nurses, could hold considerable
merit for providing health care to
rural areas,” Dr Crawford
stated.
Establishment of group
practice by physicians is
desirable, he noted, but the
scattered nature of rural
populations presents problems as
before
He feels the increasingly
popular “health maintenance
organization” problems are
solved.
Another alternative, the Penn
State rural sociologist said, is to
make greater use of public
operated comprehensive health
care techniques These exist for
the armed forces, the Public
Health Service, the Veteran’s
Administration, and for
American Indian reservations
The National Health Service
Corps represents a public at
tempt to provide medically
deficient rural areas with
physician services
