Year 2000 health objectives.
The potential effects of the report reach far into the health care community. This report could mark the beginning of an era of increased preventive health care. How the report is followed-up, however, is the key to the Year 2000 equation. Countless hours of study and countless dollars have, in the past, produced valuable reports similar to the Year 2000 report. Yet, the results of these other reports, because of lack of follow-up, are less than impressive. If the contributions of more than 7000 individuals are to translate to better health for the nation in the year 2000, follow-up measures must be enacted. This is an opportunity for action on the part of NAPNAP and all pediatric nurse practitioners.
