Health Education and Community Outreach

Health Education

Health Education group and community strategies improve health skills, behavior, and attitudes. The purpose of health education is to create a positive influence on individuals and community health behaviors. By focusing on prevention, health education can reduce the costs spent on medical treatment and increase patient compliance to medical treatment.
