Can Fam Physician. 1980 Sep;26:1220-6.
Child health care is best carried out by health professionals who are motivated to do so. The nature of the physician's training, the method of financial remuneration, and the changing health needs of Canadian children have all had a strong influence on the pattern of practice of family physicians and pediatricians. Changes are needed in all three areas to meet current and future needs. The National Child Health Goals suggested by the American Academy of Pediatrics should be considered as objectives for Canadian physicians and allied health professionals. A collaborative effort between parents, educators, social agencies and medical practitioners-including pediatricians and family physicians-will help achieve these goals in the 1980s.
儿童保健最好由有积极性的健康专业人员来进行。医生的培训性质、财政报酬方式以及加拿大儿童不断变化的保健需要，都对家庭医生和儿科医生的行医方式产生了强烈的影响。这三个方面都需要作出变革，以满足当前和未来的需要。美国儿科学会提出的国家儿童保健目标，应当被视为加拿大医生和相关保健专业人员的目标。在 20 世纪 80 年代，家长、教育工作者、社会机构和医务人员（包括儿科医生和家庭医生）之间的协作努力，将有助于实现这些目标。
