Abstract
CONTINUITY of medical care and health supervision is receiving increased emphasis in both undergraduate and graduate medical education. Clinical training in pediatric health supervision has generally been inferior to experience in the care of illness. Although it has been assumed that adequate skill in the care of well children could be developed after completion of formal training, this supposition may be questioned in view of the dissatisfaction expressed by many practitioners with their preparation for this aspect of child care. Pediatric house officers have generally taken for granted that they would be provided adequate experience in the diseases of childhood. They are beginning to expect similar preparation for health supervision.
