Public Health Impact

Public health impact refers to the overall effect that health policies, programs, or interventions have on the health and well-being of a community or population. It includes how these efforts reduce disease, improve life expectancy, and enhance quality of life. Measuring this impact helps determine what strategies are effective in promoting health, preventing illness, and addressing health disparities. Essentially, it reflects the positive change in community health outcomes resulting from collective actions aimed at improving health environment, education, access to care, and disease prevention.
