| | | | Public Health is the study of the efforts made by society to protect, promote and restore people's health. Skills learned include: evaluating, observing and recognising factors which may cause illness and inefficiency in workplaces and the community, advising on measures to reduce injury and disease, educating the community on health risks, safety procedures and techniques, examining health promotion in the health care system, schools, local government and the work place. The main purpose of this field of study is to develop an understanding of the goals of public health including the promotion of health and the prevention of disease, premature death and disease-produced discomfort and disability in the population. It also involves developing an understanding of health and environmental risk assessment with a focus on health rather than the technical aspects of environmental science.
