Improving Community Health

Beschreibung

"Public Health 101: Improving Community Health introduces undergraduate students to not only the profession of public health, but the ways of thinking encompassed by population health. Population health prepares students for the challenges in our society related to public health, helping frame the issues and analyze options to intervene. Population health requires an evidence-based approach to collecting and using facts to develop and implement approaches to improve community health. This text utilizes a unique approach to introducing students to key concepts, and students come away with a clear understanding of how public health affects their everyday lives"--
