Training of health workers for developing countries.
The training of health workers for developing countries should include emphasis on preventive as well as curative medicine. It should also include the inculcation of concern for the feelings and needs of patients including their own beliefs and practices relating to disease, time constraints in coming either alone or with young children for clinic visits and the limited funds available to them for purchase of medicine. They must also be given the chance to work in a well organized system and must be adequately remunerated.
