Abstract
(From the Introduction): Abbreviated
The purpose of this report is to present the student's observations and experiences during a 7 weeks' period of field training in public health nutrition in the state of Florida. One week was spent with the Director of the Nutrition Division, Florida State Board of Health in Jacksonville; 4 weeks were spent with the local nutritionist in the Hillsborough County Health Department, and one week with the regional nutritionist for Central Florida. The student attended the Fifth Annual Florida Nursing Home Short Course for one. This course, held for nursing home operators, was conducted jointly by the State Board of Health, the Nursing Home Association, and the Florida Institute for Continuing University Studies. Although considerable information was obtained about the state and local nutrition programs, the information which is given in this report is limited because it was impossible to grasp the full scope of the state and local programs in such a short period of time.
