General Environmental Health
Environmental public health focuses on protecting groups of individuals from
threats and hazards to their health and safety posed by their dynamic environments.
Environmental health also refers to the assessment and control of environmental
factors that can potentially affect human health and safety. A key part of any
comprehensive public health system involves environmental health, which ensures
everyone has a safe place to live, learn, work, and play. As a result,
environmental health research necessitates concerted multidisciplinary
approaches to understanding and addressing environmentally influenced health
outcomes. Environmental health professionals work to improve public
health by identifying, tracking, and addressing environmental risk factors.
Environmental health professionals, policymakers, and government officials use
the outcome of risk assessments for risk communication and risk management.
Environmental health professionals employ epidemiology to address environmental
health issues. Environmental health specialists use epidemiology, a discipline
that studies the occurrence and course of illnesses in populations, to assess
the health consequences of environmental agents. The system utilizes
environmental monitoring data to enhance its analysis and interpretation,
aiming to gain a more thorough comprehension of the environmental factors
contributing to diseases and disorders. Preventing environmental change-related
health risks will constitute the most significant public health concern of our
time.
