Recent Episodes
Rural Health in Northern California
Rural areas attract few hospitals or specialists, and transportation and weather conditions can add to difficulties in getting health care needs met for a population that has higher rates of poverty than cities. Join us as we take a road trip down Highway 299, and learn how medical professionals are working to bring quality care to this remote part of Northern California.
Prison Health Care
The health care system for California's inmate population has been troubled for years, and a court-appointed receiver currently oversees prison health care. Now the Schwarzenegger administration wants the University of California to run the system instead. Join Health Dialogues as we take a look at prison health care today, and what it might become in the future.
California Brownfields
Throughout California, there are likely tens of thousands of properties that lie unused due to some kind of pollution. These so-called brownfields can be detrimental to the public health in a variety of ways. Join Health Dialogues as we explore California brownfields: some ignored, some successfully cleaned up and others somewhere in between.
