Community Health Nursing

Community Health Nursing focuses on promoting and protecting the health of populations within a community. Nurses in this field work with individuals, families, and groups to prevent illness, improve health outcomes, and enhance healthcare access. They assess community health needs, educate residents about healthy practices, and collaborate with other health professionals and organizations. By addressing social determinants of health and advocating for policies that support well-being, community health nurses play a crucial role in building healthier communities and ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to achieve their best health.
