[Preparation of medical students and physicians teaching health education]. / Príprava medikov a lekárov na výkon zdravotnej výchovy.

In the sphere of health protection we witness at present the increasing role of the human factor, of the individual factor, and of its active involvement in health protection of the whole society. These facts call for intensified activities in health education, concerning particularly health workers who have to stimulate and guide the population to better health protection. To achieve this, greater attention has to be focused on methodological questions of health education as well as on intensive undergraduate and postgraduate training of physicians. The present scope, content and orientation of this training at both levels requires innovations reflecting the tasks and goals created by present-day conditions. The authors analyze some topical questions concerning the training of undergraduates and of postgraduates specially involved in health education. (Ref. 3.).
