Using “Healthy People 2020” as the framework for study, behavioral, developmental, cultural and lifestyle issues encountered in primary care are examined. Students identify populations at risk and determine appropriate interventions for individuals, groups, families, and special populations. Models of health promotion and risk reduction are integrated into planning care, counseling, and teaching strategies relevant to primary care across the lifespan.
