Editorial: The crisis in access.

During the last 50 years, great changes have occurred in the patterns of medical care in the United States. These changes have seriously affected physician geographic and specialty distribution and have escalated costs. New forces are developing that may have great effects on the actions of the health professions and the content of their educational programs. Orientation will change from cure to that of total health care and prevention. Today's emphasis seems directed toward comprehensive family health care, using the expertise of many new health professionals as members of a joint effort. The patient must become part of this health program by assuming an active role in the health maintenance of the individual and society. Such responsibility can be assumed by the patient only if health professionals provide access to information and knowledge.

The community and medical education: organization and function of a board of concerned citizens.

A Board of Concerned Citizens was organized in 1971 to facilitate the resolution of problems between the College of Medicne and Dentistry of New Jersey at Newark and the community in which it is located. The board has provided an orderly imput by consumers, representatives of community organizations and nonfaculty employees into decisions on policies and programs of the medical and dental schools. It has aided in the resolution of employee grievances and student problems, given support needed to assist the development of quality health care services, helped improve the climate for clinical research, and served as an intermediary between the community and college on issues of special concern to local residents. An opinion poll conducted 3 1/2 years after its organization shows c ontinued support by citizenry, nonfaculty employees, faculty, and students for a Board of Concerned Citizens. Experiences of the board indicate that investigations and recommendations of a properly organized and motivated group of community residents and leaders can provide an effective bridge between a community and a medical or dental school.
