Public Health

The science of public health addresses matters of health with the general public through the organized efforts of people working together to make sure that humans feel psychologically and physically secure in their environment.

Public health consciousness is a normal part of the life and thinking structure of every healthcare professional such as a nurse, medical assistant, medical officer, doctor or hospital administrator et al. Public health organizations include private and government run health organizations, clinics, hospitals and departments. Public health labs work to create vitamin and nutrition information for the food that you buy in stores and warning labels for speciality items, medicines, household products.

Public Health standards and education permeate society in many different ways which range from the most simple of first aid procedures to treat a cut or a burn to more advanced lifesaving techniques and complex issues such as pre-natal care etcetera. At every level of school, children and parents are educated about matters of public health. In the life of seniors, matters of public health become almost polarized and as such many seniors make good public health advocates and can help to teach us how better to help them with their particular needs.

One of the most important aspects of public health is basic emergency preparedness for civilians. There are many different kinds of emergencies. In every kind of emergency people and animals need good food, fresh water and shelter to survive and to help them think straight. A clear thinking person works to make sure that their environments are clean and sanitized, their utilities are paid and working and their children and loved ones are well fed and secure. Thus how we act during an emergency should be very close to how we act in normal life.

In cold climates people have to worry about warmth and so their public health emergency preparedness plan would include things like having lots of warm clothes, blankets and keeping a generator or a surplus of firewood et al. For people who are sick, keeping medicines in stock as well as emergency phone numbers to people and services is important. Mothers and Fathers have to consider special needs for their children depending what age they are.

Every day people are faced with the challenge of living. Good healthy living requires income of some kind, sobriety, exercise, rest, cleanliness and a good diet. People often create their own personalized public health plans good for any emergency. Consider creating a personalized public health plan for your life and keep it updated as you grow up and change it as your needs change. Make sure to do whatever it takes to keep your peace of mind. In life anxiety can also contribute negatively to any emergency and so having a plan to eliminate anxiety should be part of good personal health plan.
