A client-held health record in a health education curriculum.
A pilot health education project stressing prevention and individual responsibility was developed and presented at two high schools. The health record, maintained by the individual, focuses on health maintenance and illness prevention; although it allows for recording illnesses as well. Preliminary results are encouraging. Students were interested in the course and the record and indicated their intent to continue using the record. The article describes the health record, the educational process used and directions for future research.
