| The Council's ongoing purposes are to:
- Ensure that North Carolinians will have
access to a well-prepared, well-distributed allied health
workforce that is representative of the diversity of our state's
communities.
- Foster strategies to promote the allied
health professions as sound occupational pathways for North
Carolina's students and career changers.
- Monitor trends in the demand, supply and
distribution of allied health personnel through regular statewide
surveys.
- Inform the General Assembly through the
UNC Board of Governors of imbalances in the supply and distribution
of allied health personnel that adversely affect access to
cost-effective, appropriate and effective healthcare.
- Make recommendations to decision-makers
of the community about changes in allied health care service
needs.
- Monitor and respond to state and federal
initiatives and actions as they affect the delivery of allied
health care services and policies.
