WHEN IS ENOUGH ENOUGH - WE ARE ONLY BEGINNING

Sheridan (1995) presents the problem of the psychologist consulting to a medical residency program as an example of the difficulty one exper iences in attempting to challenge, even from a data-based perspective, the calcification inherent in health systems and medical education in particular. This paper responds to her challenging questions, ''How m uch should we get involved in changing health care and medical educati on, and at what level (local, national) should psychology intervene (i f at all)?'' It is suggested that psychologists pick up the challenge to bring about change, whenever possible, with the admonition-we are o nly beginning.
