Family Health

A Production of the College of Osteopathic Medicine and the Telecommunications Center at Ohio University.


Welcome to Family Health on the Net. Here you can find out more about the series and sample some of our programs.

FAMILY HEALTH is a daily series of 2 1/2 minute audio programs designed to reach a general listening audience with practical, easy-to-understand answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about health and health care. The series deals with a wide variety of health-related subjects. While rarer diseases are occasionally covered, the focus of the series is on the common health problems about which people are likely to ask their family physicians.

The series is written and researched at the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine, and recorded and produced at the Telecommunications Center. The series is supported through funds from the American Osteopathic Association.
