Overview
Public health is a science-based approach to promoting physical and mental health and preventing disease, injury, and disability. It focuses on preventing health problems from occurring or reoccurring by implementing educational programs, developing policies, administering services, and conducting research. Public health initiatives target the health of populations — not just individuals — with the goal of improving the overall health of communities and reducing health disparities between different populations. Public health measures can save lives and money, reducing both healthcare costs and the economic burden of illness and disability.
