ABSTRACT
In a programme inaugurated in Jamaica, community health aides have been trained to act as primary health workers. They form an important link between health departments and the communities they serve. The idea, which has spread to other Caribbean countries, is helping to solve the problem of manpower to meet health service needs.(AU)
