Primary health care concept and definition

Primary Health Care (PHC) is the first level of contact people, families and communities have with the health system, aiming to provide comprehensive, accessible, and affordable care. Mastering its definition, guiding principles and scope is essential for the NUC CCMAS, NBTE and NCCE exams because it underpins all health service delivery and policy questions.
