Public Health

Public health focuses on the overall well-being of communities and populations, aiming to prevent disease, promote health, and prolong life through organized efforts and informed choices. It encompasses a wide range of activities, from tracking and controlling diseases to advocating for policies that improve health outcomes for all. By addressing larger societal factors that influence health, such as access to healthcare, environmental quality, and social determinants, public health plays a vital role in creating healthier, more equitable communities.
