Staying Involved

This was an extremely informative class. Since I am not a Masters in Public Health major, everything I learned was practically all new information. Just signing up for the electronic newsletter from Kaiser and reading articles off of PubMed has shaped and confirmed my thought that the way health care is delivered in the U.S. needs to be changed. Visiting the L.A. county hospital has helped me to see first-hand how health care in California is provided for those that can not obtain private insurance.
In order to stay involved, I definitely will keep up to date on new state and federal legislations that involve healthcare. In particular, I will stay informed on California propositions that involve health care and I will form an educated opinion and vote accordingly. Lastly, I will try to get my friends and family involved in health care reform by informing them to vote on health related issues when election time comes.
