U. S. Doem't Need More Doclori but Belter Ones, Dean
Says Admit! Shortage ol DtntiU and Nunu
' By Paul F. Ellis
United Press Science Editor
New York, Apr. 26 (U.R) Dr.
Willard C, Rapplcye, dean of
Columbia university's college of
physicians and surgeons, believes
there is no need for more doc
tors in the United States but that
the need is for better doctors.
Rapplcye, In a report to the
National Health council, said the
country now has one physician
for every 695 persons, a ratio
twice as high in any other coun
try in the world before the last
war.
He said the nation does lack
sufficient dentists, nurses and
personnel trained in other phases
of medicine and health. The sup
ply of doctors is all right, he
added, but a better distribution
Is needed.
New Problems Created
Dr. Rappleye said that in the
future, an increasing proportion
of the population will be In old
er age groups and a larger part
of health needs will be associ
ated with the disabilities and
diseases of middle and later life.
"This presents an urgent and
serious problem for the hospitals
of the country, which are be
coming increasingly crowded
with patients afflicted with
chronic disease and disorders of
late life," he said.
Dr. Rappleye said that to re-

nounced today.

I
lieve the nation's hospital:
"from a major crisis" some steps
should be taken to increase the
emphasis upon ambulatory care
of patients as well as the mod
ernization of home care.
Satisfactory Home Care
Dr. Rappleye pointed out that
it has been demonstrated in ex
periments that in addition to
hospital and out-patient services,
it is possible to provide satisfac
tory medical and nursing atten
tion in the homes of many pa
tients.
"While there are definite limi
tations in the application of this
principle," he said, "it is clear
that the proper development of
home care will in the future al
leviate enormously the burden
on the hospitals and hence re
duce the necessity of building
and maintaining as many such
expensive units as would be oth
erwise required."
In discussing the advances in
diagnosing, treating and pre
venting disease, Dr. Rappleye
said medical knowledge is now
so advanced that no single indi
vidual can master the entire
field of medicine.
"Specialization," he said, "is
Inevitable and, within limits de
sirable, but it must be coupled
with the proper grouping of
skills and talents to provide ev
ery patient, as far as nossible.
with the highest quality of
medical attention."
