The document discusses the interrelationship between health, population, and environment education. It states that changes in one discipline directly influence the other two areas. For example, population growth can degrade environmental resources and affect healthy living. Conversely, controlling population growth can create a balanced environment and healthier people. The three subjects are therefore integrated because the education of health, population, and environment supplements each other. The document also outlines the different dimensions that show the relationship between physical, biological, economic, socio-cultural, scientific, political, and psychological aspects of health, population, and the environment.

Definition, concept and dimensions of health
Promotion of health
Maintenance of health
Health: Health Is state of complete physical, mental, and social well- being and it is not merely the absence of disease or infirmity (WHO, 1978).
Community: A group of people who share common interests, who interact with each other, and who function collectively within a defined social structure to address common concerns
Public Health: Public health is the Science and art of preventing disease, prolonging life, promoting health and efficiency through organized community effort.
Community Health: It refers to the healthy status of the member of the community to solve the problems affecting their health and to the totality of a health care provided for the community
Community Health nursing: Application of the nurses process in caring for individuals, families and group were they live, work or go to school or as they move through the health care system.
Concept of Health
The various changing concepts of health as follows:
Biomedical concept
Ecological concept
Psychosocial concept
Holistic concept
Biomedical concept
Traditionally health has been considered as an absence of the diseases and if someone was free from disease, then that person was considered healthy. This concept is known as biomedical concept, and it is based on the “germ theory of the disease.”
Health means “absence of disease.” The medical profession viewed the human body as a machine and disease is an outcome of the breakdown of the machine, and one of the doctor’s tasks was to repair the machine.
This concept has minimized the role of the environment, social and cultural determinants of the health.
Ecological Concept
Deficiencies in the biomedical concept gave rise to other concepts.
The ecologists put forward the concept of ecological concept.
Ecologists viewed health as a dynamic equilibrium between man and his environment, and the disease as a maladjustment of the human organism to environment
Psychosocial Concept
Advances in social sciences showed that health is not only a biomedical phenomenon, but one which is influenced by social, psychological, cultural factors of the people concerned.
Mental wellbeing must be taken into consideration in defining and measuring health.
Thus health is both a biological and social phenomenon
Holistic Concept
The holistic model is a synthesis of all the above concepts.
Holistic concept recognizes the strength of social, economic, political and environmental influences on health.
It has been variously described as multidimensional process involving the wellbeing of the person as a whole.
The emphasis is on the promotion and protection of health.

this presentation is help to the first year student for the basic concept of the health & about the various factors that can affect the patient's as well as the patients family member or individual
The WHO constitution sates that “ . . . the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being without distinction of race, religion, political belief, economic or social condition”.
Public health has been defined as "the science and art of preventing disease, prolonging life and promoting health through the organized efforts and informed choices of society, organizations, public and private, communities and individuals"
A major difference in perspective between public health and occupational therapy is that public health focuses on groups of people (populations), whereas traditionally, occupational therapy focuses on individuals.
Occupational therapists strive to see their clients through a holistic lens, looking at how personal factors interplay with the disease process. However, taking a holistic view also means taking an even wider lens and accounting for how public health issues are impacting our patients and how the provision of health care is itself, part of the public health framework.

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

They are described below:
Biological aspect: Biological aspects is one of the most important
aspects of environmental education. Human being, animals, birds,
insects, microorganism, plants are some of the examples of biological
aspects.
Physical aspect: It can be further divided into natural aspects and
human- made aspects. Air, water, land, climate etc are included in
natural physical aspects. Likewise, Human made physical aspects cover
all human made things such as roads, buildings, bridges, houses etc.
Socio- cultural aspect: Socio- cultural aspects are man made social

22. Health, population and environment education is introduced
as an integrated subject due to profound interrelationship
that exists among the subject matters of these three
disciplines. Any changes in one discipline directly influences
changes in other two subjects. For instance, the effect of
population growth lies in health and environment aspects.
Due to rapid population growth, degradation of the resources
takes place. Degradation of environmental resources affect in
healthy living. On the other hand, controlled population
creates a balanced environment and consequently, it tends to
produce healthy people. Therefore, education of health,
population and environment acts as supplementary of a one
another.
23. The following are the different aspects of health, population and environment which shows
the relationship between them:
Physical
Biological
Economical
Socio-cultural
