Definition and concept of public health

Public health is the science and practice of protecting and improving the health of populations through prevention, promotion, and protection strategies. Mastering its definition and core concepts is essential for the NUC CCMAS, NBTE, and NCCE exams because they form the foundation for all subsequent public health topics and are frequently tested in both descriptive and multiple‑choice questions.
