A multidisciplinary approach in family practice.
The author has joined in many community case conferences for several years. In some instances it has been possible to keep records and thereby conduct long term follow-up study. The results of such follow-up indicate that this type of conference can be useful in providing assistance to multiproblem families which would be impossible without the cooperation of many nonmedical and medical professionals. In addition to this, there are many benefits to be gained by increased familiarity with various health workers and their roles.
