PHC is a whole-of-society approach to health that aims at ensuring the highest possible level of health and well-being and their equitable distribution by focusing on people’s needs and as early as possible along the continuum from health promotion and disease prevention to treatment, rehabilitation and palliative care, and as close as feasible to people’s everyday environment.
Primary care (PC) and public health (PH) have shared goals in addressing issues of disease prevention and health promotion in the community. PC providers have been principally focused on the health of individuals, but are increasingly oriented to responding to the health of the communities they serve. PH agencies are focused on the health of communities and are under increasing demand to find ways to collaborate and build relationships with PC.
Pediatric primary health care encompasses health supervision and anticipatory guidance; monitoring physical and psychosocial growth and development; age-appropriate screening; diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic disorders; management of serious and life-threatening illness and, when appropriate, referral of more complex conditions; and provision of first contact care as well as coordinated management of health problems requiring multiple professional services.
Cardiology is a branch of internal medicine. Cardiology is the study and treatment of disorders of the heart and the blood vessels. A person with heart disease or cardiovascular disease may be referred to a cardiologist
