Among workers who assist the nutritionist are the food surveyors and distributors, and among those who assist the dietician are aides employed in the food services and in similar occupationsItem Adiestramiento de administradores de hospitales y programas de salud(s.d.)Outstanding among the public health problems in Latin America are personnel shortages and obsolete administration and organization of health servicesItem El papel del cirujano dentista de práctica privada en la salud pública(s.d.)A private dentsit can help to improve the state of health of his community by being active in the following three areas:Item Servicios integrados de salud(s.d.)The problems of nutrition call for the adoption of varied techniques and the services of not only highly specialized professional and technical personnel, but also the continued cooperation of health personnel at all levels.
