Halvorson, Holly W.; And Others

Evaluation and the Health Professions, v16 n4 p434-47 Dec 1993

A pilot study in three rural Colorado communities that focused on health service delivery problems related to cancer concentrated on perceptions of community influentials, health care providers, and patients and their families. Results indicate that qualitative methods can identify crucial problems for most people without losing sight of outlier responses. (SLD)
