Care Needs

The National health policy accepted by the honorable Indian parliament in 1983 states health care as the main device for achieving sustainable development of the community. It is a known factor that development of any society depends on the healthy people only. Without good health even we cannot think appropriately and act properly and expect the society to keep moving smoothly. It is a known fact that without proper health we cannot expect the proper social inclusion of any community in any way. An in-depth study of social determinants on health culture of any society will help in understanding complete knowledge of etiology, various health issues and policy drawbacks etc of nay society. Understanding social determents on health would be more useful in planning geographic and cultural specific health care programmes for the rural people in the county. Holistic knowledge of social determinates will be helpful in understanding health seeking behavior of the people and this will provide valuable insight in framing ground level public health policies in the country. With this background this paper is to reveal various social determinants affecting on health .This paper concluded various social determinates of public health care needs to be focused urgently.

Development Resource

In August 1989 the NHS Management Executive of the Department of Health issued Health Authorities with Circular HC(89)24 which lays down planning guidelines and resource assumptions for 1990/91. In five terse pages, the document sets the scene for the Government's priority health issues over the next two years. Several of these issues are of interest and importance to psychiatrists, as they are concerned with the implementation of the White Paper Caring for People: Community Care in the Next Decade and Beyond. Health Authorities are asked to “identify the health care needs of their populations” and to set targets, based on reports of their Directors of Public Health, to improve the overall health of their population.

Partnership Model

Many health professions schools have neglected the US population's health by emphasizing acutely ill patients in hospitals, biomedical research of disease, and high technology. Because most students will eventually fill practitioner roles in primary and secondary care, it is logical that the health professions must shift their curricula's focus to prepare practitioners for the health care needs of the community. The Community Partnership Model is one approach that focuses on public health care needs by educating students in multiprofessional teams in a new organizational structure known as the academic, community-based, primary health care center. This partnership between academic institutions and communities is designed to shift the educational and socializing activities of health professions training outside hospitals to the community setting where research, teaching, and service take place in one structure.

Abstract Background While meeting the health needs of refugees is defensible as a human right, asserting this right is insufficient to ensure that health care needs of refugees are actually met. In addition to political will and social commitment, a well-trained workforce is needed. Problems faced by refugees mean taking a range of public health and other measures, requiring a mix of skills to help health care professionals [HCPs] meet the needs of this vulnerable population. Objectives In taking an overview of global health problems associated with the health care needs of refugees, ethics and human rights are assessed to see what practical steps can be taken by public health leaders to better enable HPCs address unmet needs. Results Given the scale of the problem and the moral implications, there is a case for making refugee health a core topic in global health education. Ethical analysis is used to devise learning outcomes that could be included in programmes for continuing education and professional development. Twelve indicative learning objectives are offered, including to ‘demonstrate leadership when trying to affect change and address health problems faced by refugees' and to ‘demonstrate sensitivity to social customs without necessarily acceding to unlawful or unethical practices'. Conclusions When focusing on the health needs of refugees, practical and ethical considerations should be taken into account in support of efforts at finding educational solutions. Making refugee health a core topic in postgraduate global health education could help HCPs acquire new skills. Key messages The right to health is insufficient to ensure that refugees receive the care they need. There is an ethical case for building refugee health into education programmes for global (public) health.
