Which applications do you consider important for the health area?
Primary health care and referral should be implemented first...that would eventually lead to UHC hopefully
The applications that I consider important for the health area;
- Everyone has fair access to health services,
- preventive medicine services,
- regular and improved patient registration system,
- maternal and child health and family planning services,
- early diagnosis and treatment of chronic diseases,
- program for infectious diseases,
- immunization programs (vaccination programs)
- environmental health,
- geriatric services,
- handicapped health services,
- health education.
I think the primary application that I would consider very important is the full implementation of universal health care to every state or country in the whole world but to attain as such, one vital role that health care professionals needs to attend to critically is bringing healthcare to every households, rich and poor or whatever status they are in. Knowledge is vital so that prevention is better than cure. As healthcare practitioners, we need to educate them regarding the importance of taking one's good health and maintaining it ti the optimum level of survival. The government needs to support this type of program since, we don't want an ailing population. it is not economically sound and viable.

Before to define what applications to use, we must decide which will be garantizes in health care. But, I thinks which the prevent programs or early detection of the disease could should be prioritized.
Dear Paula de Orue ,
It's the great answer. For the preventive care, " self-healing, qigong, herbal diet, etc. " are needed.
For early detection, use the body sign that appears before symptoms coming out and far before any western medicine adopted test method can detected is the best choice. It's low cost and after some training, I bet, even the training cost is lower than train specialist or whatever professional name is called to learn how to operate the machine and MDs learn how to read the test data to give a consultation. TCM can achieve this purpose.
When symptoms just coming out, people only feel mild discomfort, start to use self-healing system that can be activated by some training such as less than 1-3 hours or 1-3 days training can achieve to prevent the rest of life to have the same issue, as a public health educator or policy maker or worker, I do not know if you think it should be accepted or not?
Best Regards,
Frieda
think we need to take dual approach of asking what matters to people - and working on that first and look at early intervention across the health spectrum - which will mean partnering with non health organisations to get the information/advice/environment etc to the wider community and allow them to build healthier communities for themselves, as well as better detection with proactive (rather than reactive) responses.
Important for health area:
provide universal health coverage by good health financing system
enhance preventive medicine for prolong healthy live with good quality of life.
