Health care or healthcare is the maintenance or improvement of health via the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease, illness, injury, and other physical and mental impairments in human beings. Health care is delivered by health professionals (providers or practitioners) in allied health professions, chiropractic, physicians, dentistry, midwifery, nursing, medicine, optometry, pharmacy, psychology, and other health professions. It includes the work done in providing primary care, secondary care, and tertiary care, as well as in public health.
Access to health care varies across countries, groups, and individuals, largely influenced by social and economic conditions as well as the health policies in place. Countries and jurisdictions have different policies and plans in relation to the personal and population-based health care goals within their societies. Health care systems are organizations established to meet the health needs of target populations. Their exact configuration varies between national and subnational entities. In some countries and jurisdictions, health care planning is distributed among market participants, whereas in others, planning occurs more centrally among governments or other coordinating bodies. In all cases, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), a well-functioning health care system requires a robust financing mechanism; a well-trained and adequately-paid workforce; reliable information on which to base decisions and policies; and well maintained health facilities and logistics to deliver quality medicines and technologies.
When global health practitioners use knowledge management in their work, health systems operate more smoothly and clients receive better care. Ultimately, knowledge management contributes to greater health and longer, happier lives. The best news? Many of us already practice knowledge management every day. Watch our new animation to see how, and to learn how we can be more intentional and systematic in our knowledge management practices in order to strengthen services and improve lives.
House, Chicago Hope, ER, Grey’s Anatomy, St. Elsewhere… if you tune in to popular TV, it seems like health care facilities are mostly doctors and nurses and patients (all of whom are also constantly, often inexplicably, drawn into webs of drama and intrigue). But in the real world, that’s far from the case. The health services industry is a hugely complex one—and an aging population, changing legislation, and reform efforts are making it more so. It’s become one of the fastest growing fields in the U.S., and the need for highly qualified people to lead both facilities and staff continues to grow. If you’re interested in helping people and communities, and want to know how to start (or grow) your career in planning, directing, and coordinating medical and health services, the Bachelor of...
After a disaster, the need for health care increases dramatically. But when Typhoon Bopha hit the Philippines last December, it devastated health facilities, leaving them unable to cope. Enter the Red Cross Basic Healthcare Unit, donated by the Japanese Red Cross. No sooner had the winds dropped than the ICRC and the Philippine Red Cross were on the ground setting up this temporary clinic in Baganga, one of the hardest-hit areas in Davao Oriental. Over an 11-week period, dedicated health professionals from the Red Cross Societies of Canada, Finland, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Norway, and the Philippines staffed the unit, providing free treatment for over 7,000 patients. The Basic Healthcare Unit filled the gap while health facilities were being repaired, some with the support of the ...
