public health laboratory metho
ds, child hygiene, etc. The curri
culum covers a twelve weeks’
period and includes intramural
instruction, laboratory exer- 1
cises, health surveys, and field
work. Following this, a month
with the field demonstration unit
is required for North Carolina
trainees, while the other States
establish their own requirements
for practical experience.
“In brief”, explained Dr. Reyn
olds, North Carolina State Health
Officer, “It is the purpose of
these courses to constantly raise
the standards for and to increase (
the efficiency of those engaged
in public health work. The mini-j
mum requirement for entrance*
into the school of public
now is that the entrant shall
have at least a high school di
ploma and a course in chemistry
and biology.
Results Evident, Reynolds Says
“A survey of health workers
shows conclusively that the
standards are bing raised stad
ily and satisfactorily. In other
words, we are determined that
every public health worker shall
be assigned. This is in keeping
with the forward trend of things,
and certainly in a field as impor
tant as that of public health
there must be no lagging, if the
maximum results are to be ob
tained for those who are invest
ing their money in this work,
through the taxes they pay, and
those the work is designed to
help.”
