A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Concept of primary health care

Primary health care (PHC) is the first level of contact people, families and communities have with the health system, aimed at providing comprehensive, accessible and affordable care. Mastering PHC concepts is essential for the exam because it underpins the Nigerian health system’s strategy for universal coverage, disease prevention and health promotion.
