Primary Health Care

Primary Health Care

Primary Health Care (PHC) is the foundation of an effective and equitable health system, providing accessible, affordable, and comprehensive care close to where people live and work. It focuses on health promotion, disease prevention, early diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, and palliative care. Primary health care addresses common health needs across all ages and emphasizes continuity of care, community participation, and intersectoral collaboration. Services typically include maternal and child health, immunization, management of chronic diseases, mental health support, and health education. From a public health perspective, strong primary health care systems reduce health inequalities, prevent unnecessary hospitalizations, and improve population health outcomes. PHC also plays a critical role in early detection of disease outbreaks and public health emergencies. Investing in primary health care strengthens health system resilience, improves efficiency, and supports universal health coverage.
