Considering the future trends in health education and promotion the areas that are expected to change or
impacted in the future are 1. minority populations, 2. aging populations, 3. technology, 4. family structure,
5. political climate and 6. medical care establishment. As a Health Education Specialist working the field,
how would the areas of demographics, society, technology and politics expect to change and how would
the changes affect the work. Explain what changes you expect to see with the medical care establishment, aging populations, and the minority population areas? How would the Health
Education Specialist have to adapt in order to meet those changes.
