###-Book Description Begin-###
by Rosemary Caron (Author)
Population health examines a diverse range of environmental, physical, and cultural conditions that occur within populations; considers the outcomes these conditions have on people s health; and seeks the development of policies and interventions to improve health and minimize health inequities in an efficient and affordable manner. A complex undertaking, it requires the effective integration of public health and healthcare systems that have traditionally functioned separately. Population Health: Principles and Applications for Management provides the building blocks for this approach and presents a new way of promoting health, preventing disease, and navigating public health and healthcare challenges in an ever-changing environment. The book explains the key principles, skills, and applications of public health; describes how a healthcare administrator can use epidemiology, the basic science of public health, to understand and address the needs of communities; and then synthesizes this information to provide an introduction to population health management. Key topics include the following:
The core functions of public health
Public health system organization
>li> Descriptive and analytic epidemiology
Health determinants and their impacts
Methods for assessing the health of a community
Applications of managerial epidemiology
Elements of a data-driven approach to population health
Bolstered by a variety of case studies and exercises, this book provides students with a conceptual framework that can be further developed and expanded through new experiences. Although the specific public health and healthcare issues facing communities will inevitably change over time, the lessons in this book will remain essential to efforts to improve the health of populations.
