3. INTRODUCTION
Health: A state of complete physical,
mental, and social well being and not
merely absence of disease or infirmity.
What does health for all means?
• “Large numbers of the world’s
people, perhaps more than
half, have no access to health
care at all, and for many of the
rest the care they receive does
not answer the problems they
have.”
4. WHAT IS PRIMARY HEALTH CARE
PHC is essential health care that is a socially
appropriate, universally accessible, scientifically
sound first level care provided by a suitably trained
workforce supported by integrated referral systems
and in a way that gives priority to those most in
need, maximises community and individual self-
reliance and participation and involves
collaboration with other sectors.
It includes the following:
health promotion
illness prevention
care of the sick
advocacy
community development

16. WHO STRATEGIES OF PHC
1. Reducing excess mortality of poor marginalized
populations:
PHC must ensure access to health services for the
most disadvantaged populations, and focus on
interventions which will directly impact on the major
causes of mortality, morbidity and disability for
those populations.
2. Reducing the leading risk factors to human health:
PHC, through its preventative and health promotion
roles, must address those known risk factors, which
are the major determinants of health outcomes for
local populations.
17. CONTINUED….
3. Developing Sustainable Health Systems:
PHC as a component of health systems must
develop in ways, which are financially sustainable,
supported by political leaders, and supported by
the populations served.
4. Developing an enabling policy and institutional
environment:
PHC policy must be integrated with other policy
domains, and play its part in the pursuit of wider
social, economic, environmental and development
policy.
