Management Of Medical Problems Resulting From Population Relocation

The report describes research on the management of medical problems resulting from the relocation of populations from likely target (risk) areas to lower-risk (host) areas. The research suggests that the health and medical (h/m) problems of a relocated population will likely be those that are normally present in a population, plus a set of problems due to relocation itself. Volume I contains Part One, the Analytical Report, which provides a medical profile of the United States; identifies the day-to-day h/m problems of the population: examines the h/m problems that might be expected to result from population relocation; sets forth essential h/m functions for crisis relocation; and discusses resources and systems to meet h/m needs during a relocation period.
