A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Concept of health, family and family health education

The concept of health is a holistic state of physical, mental, and social well‑being, not merely the absence of disease. Families are the primary social unit that influences health behaviours, and family health education equips families with knowledge, skills, and attitudes to promote health and prevent illness.
