The article presents a model for personnel planning as well as the establishment in a family planning service in the U.S. It has been focused on the capability of the planning service in dealing the patients. It gives explanation as to the use of this service in the required personnel. It has been observed that various personnel in a family planning clinic are not interchangeable. This shows that the nurse cannot execute the duties of the doctor. It also indicates that a clinic where doctors are fully occupied, an increase in the number of nurses would not contribute anything to the output.

An experimental approach was used to evaluate and compare two methods of organizing ambulatory care in a pediatric clinic. Both staff and patients expressed greater satisfaction with the pediatric clinic designed to provide continuity of physician care than with the conventional ‘sequential’ clinic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
