  • Title: [environmental medicine and public health service].

    Journal: Offentl Gesundheitswes; 1990 Jul; 52(7):301-7. PubMed ID: 2143280.
    Abstract:
    Trying to Define "Environmental Medicine", "Environmental hygiene" and "hygienic environmental protection", the relation between Public Health service and environmental medicine are discussed. The study demonstrates that the practice of environmental medicine, in this case illustrated by the work of a Public Health Office, can be classified on the one hand according to the tasks which a Public Health Office has to perform concerning environmental medicine, and on the other hand according to the methods and resources of its work. This classification exercises, consequently, an influence on the personal and technical equipment and on the organisation of a Public Health Office. Finally, an attempt is made to outline the practice of environmental medicine peculiar to a Public Health Office.
