The ebook edition of this title is Open Access and freely available
to read online. This book reports on a project which studied of how
primary care services are delivered to children. The study, the
first of its kind, has been undertaken over three years, with 20
scientific partners, and an expert agent in each country. Chapters
address key questions such as professional patterns, service
structure, and e-health. But it also addresses cross-cutting issues
which have emerged, such as equity, listening to children and
parents, quality, children's increasing autonomy across the life
course, and inter-professional coordination. Summarising the
current policies for children's primary care in each country in the
EU/EEA, authors consider the differences of structure and delivery,
and of outcomes including financing, professional education,
e-health and other supports.
Awareness of the importance of nutrition and physical activity
for good health has given rise to a multitude of projects with
different scopes and methodologies. This variety makes it necessary
to bring the results of these activities into a coordinated
framework. This book aims to summarize the activities carried out
by the EU countries to address these determinants of health.
Contributors are drawn from Germany, Italy, Sweden, and United
Kingdom.
