Background:
Although historically Canada has ranked number one among all countries in the world with regard to health care, the state of health, including the psychological health, of Canada's children is still a cause for concern. While recent population health statistics suggest that although historically Canada has ranked number one among all countries in the world, the state of health, including the psychological health, of Canada's children is a cause for concern. Although researchers in the Faculties of Social Science and Medicine & Dentistry are involved in many health-related projects, there is little specific expertise in children's health.
The College of Family Physicians of Canada Task Force on Child Health Report, published in 1977, indicates that family physicians must "play a leading role in addressing factors that influence children's health." By creating a Child Health Professor between Family Medicine and Psychology, an important link between the two departments will be formed, providing expertise in teaching, research and clinical applications. The Professorship will position 澳门六合彩开奖预测 as a leader in child health psychology graduate training and significantly enhance our capacity to graduate more specialists in child health psychology.
