The 21st century needs to be dedicated to the broader vision of building healthy communities. The challenge for us as leaders in the communities in which we live and work will be to develop a nondisparate shared vision of health that serves all populations from birth to death. Disparity benchmarks and indicators will be key in order to achieve the U.S. Surgeon General's commitment to eliminate the disparities in health in this new century. Florence Nightingale's 19th century vision of creating an environment of healing--together with the Mayo brothers' primary value that the needs of the patient come first, which were set forth during the same time period--needs to guide us as we embark upon our 21st century journey.
21世纪需要致力于构建健康社区这一更为广阔的愿景。作为我们生活和工作所在社区的领导者,我们面临的挑战将是形成一个无差异的、共享的健康愿景,服务于从出生到死亡的所有人群。为实现美国卫生局局长在新世纪消除健康差异的承诺,差异基准和指标将是关键。弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔19世纪创建康复环境的愿景,以及同一时期梅奥兄弟提出的患者需求至上的首要价值观,在我们踏上21世纪征程之际,需要指引我们前行。
