Of primary concern are the availability and utilization of health services and facilities in rural areas, including increased availability of health manpower, community involvement in health planning, consumer health education, and rural health research. From its inception in the 19409, the Council on Rural Health has recognized the need for a broad program of health education for the rural population. With limited health manpower resources and health care facilities, it is imperative that rural Americans be provided with a program in health education for personal health and for involvement in community action in developing adequate health care services. The Cooperative Extension Service, with its county organization and staff, has the organizational network to reach the rural people with the needed health education program. Thus from the very beginning, the Cooperative Extension Service has been represented on an Advisory Committee to the Council, which also included members from the Farm Foundation, the American Farm Bureau Federation, the National Grange, and the American Agricultural Editors’ Association. With the involvement of the Advisory Committee representatives, a health education effort was initiated with national conferences on rural health and state and regional health education meetings. The Council’s efforts through the years are being realized with the increased involvement of the Cooperative Extension Service a t all levels in health education programs, with increased participation of the rural population in such programs, and with wider involvement and commitment of health organizations and agencies in a cooperative approach with the federal Extension Service. Basic decisions for improvement of rural health services are generally made at the community and area or regional level within a state. Therefore, the Council program at the national level is geared to involvement and communication with state medical associations, state","PeriodicalId":75897,"journal":{"name":"Health education monographs","volume":"3 1","pages":"12-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1975-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/109019817500300103","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12312701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many rural communities lack physicians; other communities have only elderly doctors who must limit their practices. Many groups in such communities have used initiative and individualism in seeking answera to their primary health care problems, even as the availability of health services and access to care have worsened? Much community effort has gone toward attracting physicians into rural areas through construction of buildings, cash bonuses, state-supported education, and other means. All these have had minimal results. What has to happen? The vision of a comprehensive rural health care system has to become more widely known to rural people. The leadership for the development of such systems must come from local people since they must support it financially in its development, utilize its services, and operate primary care centers as community resources. A comprehensive health system that can serve all the health needs of all the people in an area must have three levels of care primary care, secondary care, and tertiary care. Except for emergency medical service, the most urgent needs in rural areas are in primary care services. This article will highlight problems and programs where health education is needed to improve health care in rural areas primary care, financing of health care, emergency health service, and personal health maintenance.","PeriodicalId":75897,"journal":{"name":"Health education monographs","volume":"3 1","pages":"109-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1975-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/109019817500300114","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12312699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many educational efforts have been made, both by the Extension Service and by other organizations. The depth and scope of health education within the Extension Service have varied in relation to many factors over the decades. This article reviews what Extension has done, and some of the influences which appear to have affected the scope and degree of its health education effort. Direct cause-and-effect relationships are usually uncertain, but the Extension Service, like other public educational agencies, responds to current thought trends in its field of effort. Thus, reference to some significant evidence of health concerns in various decades seems pertinent in order to gain a true historical perspective on health education in Extension.","PeriodicalId":75897,"journal":{"name":"Health education monographs","volume":"3 1","pages":"18-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1975-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/109019817500300104","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12274034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, Extension has pioneered with methods and materials for teaching adults, has conducted research, and has emphasized evaluation of program efforts in order to increase its effectiveness in meeting human needs and in responding to changing concerns and conditions. Because health is a major problem facing rural people, Cooperative Extension Services in the states have been involved from their inception in certain aspects of family health. In recent years, some states have expanded their health education efforts by adding health education specialists to their staffs and by developing programs to increase knowledge of local health services, to teach sound personal health attitudes, and to foster the adoption of specific health practices. Concurrently, health-related organizations and agencies have encouraged Extension to become more active in health education and have solicited Extension’s support in various educational programs. Thus, for example, in 1972 the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare awarded grants for special health education projects to four states: Wisconsin, Virginia, Maryland, and Missouri. In Arkansas, the Regional Medical Program financed an initial expansion of Extension’s involvement in health education, with support from the Arkansas Medical Society and the University of Arkansas Medical Center. More recently, the 4-H Foundation has been awarded a planning grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to develop health education programs involving youth through Extension.
