These videos are designed to provide you with a broad understanding of the topics that are discussed in class. This week, our focus is on understanding public health basics: prevention of disease, clean air, clean water, and food supplies. You will also learn about how different cities approach and manage their public health issues for residents’ maximum well-being.
This week, evaluate your own community in terms of integrated approaches to public health. Select a focus on disease prevention and control, air, water, or food. Then, answer the following in your initial post:
What community-based strategies do you see in place to protect health?
What health services, local organizations, or national organizations exist to support wellness in your area of focus?
Does pollution or contamination in your area impact the focus you selected?
What does your community need to do to improve public health in the area you selected for this discussion?
The area of choice is Kansas City, MO. And transcriipts will be attached.
