Public Health Approach: A unique and powerful way to perceive and address national and local health issues. Unlike the medical model, which deals with the doctor-patient relationship, the public health approach deals with the community as a whole. Public health interventions are community-focused, population-based interventions aimed at preventing a disease or condition, or limiting death or disability from a disease or condition.
