SP characteristics
Public health is a multidisciplinary field of science with a main focus on promoting health, prevention of illness, and development of health care services. In comparison to other medical specialties, the target of exploration and research in public health is not an individual patient or a group of patients, but the entire population. Experts on public health deal with promotion of well-being and health in population, development of services for general public within health care systems. Such promotion and development include attention to various areas affecting population health: health care policies, health care funding, accessibility of health care, assessment of quality, evaluation of effectiveness. In public health, epidemiological methods combined with health care data are used for analysing trends in society and for modelling prospective scenarios. Other important issues belong to agenda of public health as well: ethical, social, legal, and economical aspect of health care systems.
