DEFINISI
HEALTH:
the one published by the World Health Organization in 1947. That definition states that "health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity."1 However, in more recent times the word has taken on a more holistic approach; Payne and Hahn have defined health as "a reflection of your ability to use the intrinsic and extrinsic resources within each dimension of health in order to participate fully in the activities that contribute to growth and development during each stage of the life cycle. health the blending of all one's personal resources for the enjoyment of a satisfying, productive life

CONT
COMMUNITY
Traditionally, a community has been thought of as a geographic area with specific boundaries-for example, a neighborhood, city, county, or state. However, in the context of community health, community is "a group of people who have common characteristics; communities can be defined by location, race, ethnicity, age, occupation, interest in particular problems or outcomes, or common bonds.3 Examples of communities include the people of the city of San Francisco (location), the Asian community (race), the Hispanic community (ethnicity), seniors (age), the business or the banking communities (occupation), the homeless (specific problem), those on welfare (particular outcome), or church members (common bond). A community may be as small as the group of people who live on a residence hall floor or as large as all of those who make up a nation.

TEXT BOOK OF PH & CM


As a discipline, it is defined as that branch of medicine, which addresses certain selected aspects of health promotion, disease prevention, health restoration (by curative steps) and rehabilitation of the former patients, in the community, usually, from an Institutional Community Base which is usually either an Academic Department in a medical college or through a curative centre.

HISTORY
As a professional movement, in USA, community medicine first appeared when some medical schools began to establish a new department (or rename an existing Dept of Preventive Medicine) to charge it with functions of defining the health problems of a community (in the vicinity of the college, or an adopted community) and to suggest solutions, maintain surveillance and monitor progress.

Many hospitals also established department of community medicine to bring together responsibility for the professional direction and coordination of a range of ambulatory programs in OPD and emergency, personal health, outreach satellite elements and other services. In UK, community medicine essentially includes Epidemiology and Medical Administration and has been seen as a successor to public health, providing information and advise on the health status and the services to the community and to the local Self Govt / community organizations, as well as performing other planning and management functions. Thus, in UK, the community medicine specialist is trained to function as Medical Officer of Health (MOH).

Health for All by the Year 2000

CH vs PH
Community health includes both private and public (government) efforts of individuals, groups, and organizations to promote, protect, and preserve the health of those in the community. Public health is the sum of all governmental efforts to promote, protect, and preserve the people's health.

Community Health Versus Personal Health


Personal health activities are individual actions and decision making that affect the health of an individual or his or her immediate family members. These activities may be preventive or curative in nature but seldom directly affect the behavior of others. Choosing to eat wisely, to wear a safety belt regularly, and to visit the physician are all examples of personal health activities.

Community health activities are those that are aimed at protecting or improving the health of a population or community. Maintenance of accurate birth and death records, protection of the food and water supply, and participating in fund drives for voluntary health organizations such as the American Lung Association are examples of community health activities.

DECLARATION of ALMA-ATA (1979)


Primary health care is essential health care based on practical, scientifically sound and socially acceptable methods and technology made universally accessible to individuals and families in the community through their full participation and at a cost that the community and the country can affordble. It forms an integral part of both the country's health system, of which it is the central function and main focus, and the overall social economic development of the community. It is the first level of contact of individuals, the family and the community with the national health system, bringing health care as close as possible to where people live and work and constitutes the first element of a continuing health care process.
