1.CONCEPT OF PUBLIC HEALTH

CARE

Public health refers to all organized measures (whether

public or private) to prevent disease, promote health, and

prolong life among the population as a whole. Its activities

aim to provide conditions in which people can be healthy

and focus on entire populations, not on individual patients

or diseases. Thus, public health is concerned with the

total system and not only the eradication of a particular

disease
