🏥 Fundamentals of Public Health

Disease Prevention

Study strategies for preventing diseases and health problems at the population level.

Disease Prevention = Primary + Secondary + Tertiary Prevention
Prevention Effectiveness = Intervention Impact / Resources Used
Population Health = Individual Health + Social Determinants

Health Promotion

Learn to promote healthy behaviors and lifestyles through education, policy, and environmental changes.

Health Promotion = Education + Policy + Environment
Behavior Change = Knowledge + Motivation + Opportunity
Health Equity = Fair Access + Equal Outcomes

Community Health

Explore approaches to improving health outcomes for entire communities and populations.

Community Health = Population Health + Social Factors
Health Outcomes = Health Services + Social Determinants + Individual Factors
Community Capacity = Resources + Skills + Networks

🔬 Advanced Concepts

Epidemiology

Study the distribution and determinants of health and disease in populations.

Health Policy

Explore the development and implementation of policies that affect population health.
