You probably know way more than I do about what you need to get a clinic started. If it helps, currently my interest lies in addressing the needs of immigrant families, primarily Spanish-speaking families, in California. Addressing the needs of the undocumented, low SES/literacy/education status/etc especially. My methodological theory currently emphasizes COPC (Community Oriented Primary Care) heavily focused in engaging the community in addressing their own health needs and barriers, and prioritizing interventions by the community's own desires, and empowering them to collect and utilize their own epidemiological data in order to assist in the prioritization and implementation process. Sounds good yeah? But I know squat when it actually comes down to getting something like that started. So that's where you come in. And I imagine that the planning and preparation process will be lengthy, so if we start now, we'll probably be good to go by the time I'm board certified. And if it makes a difference, I will try desperately to get my residency in California, UCSF in particular, in Family Med (unless there's another California school with a better COPC program).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17583657524072353535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38873862.post-52263142095750570872008-10-30T23:40:00.000-07:002008-10-30T23:40:00.000-07:00Will the health clinic feature quad measurements? ...Will the health clinic feature quad measurements? 58.2.

But if you MUST pick one, please vote McKinney, and don't worry about Obama - he will win or lose w/ or w/o your vote, but your vote may mean a great deal for McKinney and progressive agendas in the country, and around the world.<BR/><BR/>1A - YES! California High Speed Rail is essential. Planes = lots of pollution and too costly to be accessible by low-income families and not easily scalable (it's way more environmentally unfriendly and costly on the public to expand airports than to develop a high speed rail system). We need public transportation on a wide scale. A high speed train would create transportation hubs in the majorly populated areas in California, and while not directly addressing the issue of poor local transportation systems, it would drive counties and municipalities to take advantage of their hubs and expand, integrate, and generally reinvest in a state-wide public transportation system. ALSO, FUNDAMENTALLY important, is that liberals get away from the "we don't have enough money for good thing A and good thing B, we must choose." This is a false premise created by conservatives to breed infighting among liberals and to force liberals to cut their own feet out from under themselves. California is one of the wealthiest regions in the world. Even amidst the housing crisis and economic recession, our state is vastly wealthy. What we lack is the political will. Liberals should not be "reasonable" and undercut their own progressive agendas. Instead they should push ALL fronts and demand that the conservatives find compassion in their hearts and reason in their brains, or shut the fuck up. We must advance state-wide, energy efficient, reasonably priced transportation AND local public transportation, and forget the idea that we must choose. No, conservatives must choose: Raise taxes on the rich and on corporations, or die.<BR/><BR/>5 - An apprehensive yes. I haven't done my research on this, but I lean towards yes, while also sympathizing with the concerns regarding the PIC.<BR/><BR/>7 - YES. While small wind and solar companies are important, what's more important? Global warming or small businesses? I sympathize with the small business owners that would have issues, but the urgency of environmental collapse may require making some uncomfortable economic choices. Instead, support prop 7 and also advocate for even FURTHER promotion of small business renewable energy providers (remember: liberals need to stop cutting themselves short. Push forward ALL of your agendas. Demand that big companies increase their renewables AND that small companies be supported in advancing their innovative solutions.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17583657524072353535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38873862.post-8600121914160724202008-10-30T14:13:00.000-07:002008-10-30T14:13:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17583657524072353535noreply@blogger.com
