Public health is defined as “the approach to medicine that is concerned with the health of the community as a whole” ("Definition of Public Health", 2013). Without public health, health care would be in vain. A person could be in perfect health one day, come in contact with a person with a contagious disease, and be dead within twenty-four hours. This paper will discuss the local health department.

Reaching millions at their household level to not only cure but also prevent is the essence of public health, and unless a trained equipped multitasker carries the baton, reaching out hundreds at their doorstep will remain a distant dream. But again in today’s era can we really afford to be so vast and yet be comprehensible, to not be so pinpointed on one particular specialty and yet be coined a “clinician.”
For an appropriate health intervention to be implemented in a community, it is required to define the health needs of the community.
Communities vary by way of their geographic location, occupation, ethnicity, housing conditions, beliefs, festivals, oracle or religious beliefs, topography, etc. that in one way or another influences their health. These communal traits may also in turn influence their attitude towards traditional or modern health care. Meaning, every community provides its own unique/ special health challenges to the health authority and one cannot be used completely for the other. To obtain this important data, a community diagnosis is done to comprehensively assess the health state of the community in relation to the social, physical and biological environment. This qualitative and quantitative description of the health of the citizens of the community is important to ascertain the characteristics that put members at higher risk or lower risk or may actually be protective.
Ankyease community was coined from the local name of the Guava tree. That is “Atia” = guava tree and “ase” = under (Twi language). Put together, we have under the Guava tree.
Community diagnosis of Ankyease was done and the observation summarized in this presentation. A descriptive/ cross-sectional study was done within the period of July and August 2017. A structured questionnaire was used but a visit to each of the 50 household (sample size), involved an informal focus-group/ qualitative interview to buttress some of the responses given by the respondents. A visual observation of the community was also done to obtain the housing profile and other structures of interest.
Most of the inhabitants of the community were of Ewe background and mostly below the age of 18 years. On the average, most of the members of each household or occupants were below the 5 in number.
The usual high prevalence of malaria was observed with an increase in the incidence of teenage pregnancy. There were no toilet facilities, schools, health centres as well as any established local or traditional industries within the community. They however produce most of their staple foods themselves since most of them are farmers. Others were also involved in the trading of firewood with the nearby communities for money, fish or any other good that may be mutually acceptable to both parties.
A Community Health Worker (CHW) is a frontline public health worker who is a trusted community member with an unusually close understanding of the community served. This is short presentation designed to garner support for CHWs.

Violence Against Women (VAW) is a public health concern. It affects the physical, mental, sexual, and reproductive health of women. Despite rising levels of education and pro-women laws across India, VAW is a major concern in the state of Punjab. The aim of the study outlines the design and implementation of a community-developed VAW intervention. A 360° approach was used to view the complex interplay between individual, interpersonal, community, and societal factors associated with VAW. Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were used to identify community perceptions on VAW in the Fatehgarh Sahib District of Punjab. A community-based intervention named JAGO was designed and developed among a population of about 20,000 in 25 villages of Punjab. Operational meetings, IEC campaign, street plays, photography, gender sensitization workshops, painting competition, home visits, and village-level celebrations and pledge presentation ceremonies were also conducted.

1. Dear Sir or Madam,
As a pediatric oncologist at the Medical College of Wisconsin, I am actively engaged
in the clinical management of children with cancer. As an academician, I am
involved in the education of students, residents, and fellows. I am engaged in the
ongoing improvement of the health and well being of children in the community
through multidisciplinary, multi-institutional clinical and translational research
projects that range from functional MRI for evaluating neurocognitive changes in
brain tumor patients… to development of novel therapeutics for cancer patients… to
optimizing radiographic techniques to differentiate nonmalignant from malignant
tumors. As part of the Children's Oncology Group, I have been a co-investigator or
the institutional principal investigator of numerous phase I, II, and III
clinical/biological trials. I am a member of the grant review committees for the
Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI), the Cancer Center at the Medical
College of Wisconsin, and the St. Baldrick’s Foundation. Administratively, I have co-
lead the inception of our brain tumor program and the formation of the
comprehensive Brain Tumor Clinic at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin. I have
successfully organized and implemented fundraising events that included up to 100
volunteers in each, had numerous business support/involvement, and helped raise
awareness of and funds for pediatric cancer and blood disorders. I am now part of
the Board of Directors of World Child Cancer – USA, an international organization
whose mission is to optimize health and lives of children with cancer in the
underserved parts of the world.
My personal life’s experiences have given me direction and molded me into who I
am. I was born in India and lived with my family till I was 10 years old. Then, I was
found to have leukemia. My family sacrificed virtually their lives savings and careers
by suddenly having to move to a foreign land (United States) to help give me the
best chance to beat this thing. We had so much help and support from so many
compassionate people and volunteer organizations that continues to touch me.
Selfless people, to whom we were strangers, came to help seemingly out of nowhere.
This experience eventually solidified me to give back to the medical community and
care for children with cancer. It also made me appreciate the true satisfaction and
justness of helping people in need.
While my endeavors so far have been fulfilling, I now desire to improve the lives of
people in communities without adequate resources. I am committed to improve the
health and well-being of people on a more global scale. I wish to use my energy and
passion towards improving the health of people who may benefit significantly from
even "small" improvements (such as clean water access, sanitation, education, social
and economic empowerment, and general health). I am confident and excited to
transition myself to such endeavors.
Over the past year, my engagement with The Water Council (a collaborative water
technology think-tank based in Milwaukee) has led me to appreciate the benefit of
integration of business and academic institutions, and researchers to help solve a
2. variety of water needs in communities around the world. These institutions and
individuals include experts in vast range of fields, including civil and chemical
engineering, waste management, agriculture, health fields from nutrition to
infectious disease to cancer, epidemiology, and meteorology. To help infuse fresh
thinkers and increase interest of such sciences, I am seeking local academic and
business institutions’ input to include high-school through graduate school trainees
into such multidisciplinary projects that allow us to tackle multifaceted water
problems across the globe.
My biggest strength that I can bring to your group is my ability to work with people
of diverse backgrounds from local people to academicians, and with regional,
national, and global groups. An example of this is the opportunity over the past few
months to help direct the inception of a pediatric cancer center in an underserved
area of Peru. My experience has included visiting the region and meeting with a
wide range of staff and leaders that included representatives from the region’s
health care, School of Public Health, INEN (the cancer center of Peru), and Peru’s
National Institute of Health. I was impressed by the wide disparities of the overall
health care and its access. To improve health care for cancer patients, I am working
with my colleagues to optimize opportunities for early detection of cancer. We are
studying environmental exposures of substances that may be associated with
increased risk of specific cancers seen in the community. Other interventions
include providing community education to help limit these risks and developing
guidelines for early evaluation that are practical for the region. I am working with
the above mentioned institutions as well as WHO’s International Agency for
Research on Cancer (IARC) to create a more cohesive population based cancer
registry that includes data which are congruent with the global “standards”.
I am excited to use my educational and research experience to facilitate learning and
project opportunities that incorporate a diversity of valuable resources to solve
common problems. I want to work with people to think “outside the box” to help
resolve issues that seem “simple”, such as treating a child with a rash. I wish to
highlight this with a specific example. Outside of making the medical diagnosis and
treating the rash, I want the health care team to realize the potential non-medical
issues and to act upon helping to remedy them. The rash may be a consequence of
the child being sensitive to exposures such as mites or roaches, which may be
related to unclean, infested carpeting in the family’s rented apartment. The real
remedy to decreasing the rash exacerbations (and, therefore, limiting recurrent
doctor’s visits and reduce health care costs) may be the need for helping the child’s
family figure out ways to limit such exposures. Interventions may include changing
their home or pressing their landlord to clean or change old carpeting, but may
economically or legally be overwhelming for the family to pursue. Active
engagement of the health care team with social and legal support in the community
would be prudent in optimizing the overall health of its people. Helping incentivize
society to have healthy environments through collaborative, multidisciplinary
efforts would be effective in reducing the overall health care burden.
3. Health of an individual or a community is not only restricted to supporting its
medical health needs. It encompasses one’s overall well-being that includes social
health, adequate nutrition, education, opportunities for success, and a nurturing
environment to empower self–respect and confidence to achieve. Health of a
community includes its economy, adequate access for the needs of its people, safe
environment, and collaboration to optimize and maintain the health of all its
individuals. Enhancing the health of an individual and the community would reduce
the cost of health care and enhance the quality of life locally and on a global scale.
I am passionate to impact society and to improve the quality of life for all people.
The spectrum of its needs is vast. I am driven to help resolve them alongside equally
impassioned individuals and institutions. I am drawn towards passion for
citizenship through advocacy, collaboration, research, and equity. If you are
committed to improve the well-being of individuals and communities in need in
order to making the world a better place, I would be honored to take part in it.
I thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Sach
