Child Health

Child health refers to the overall physical, mental, and social well-being of children from infancy through adolescence. It encompasses a wide range of aspects, including nutrition, physical activity, prevention of illness, access to healthcare services, and mental health support. Child health aims to ensure that children grow and develop in a safe and healthy environment, allowing them to reach their full potential. Factors that influence child health include genetics, family environment, socio-economic status, education, and community resources. Promoting child health involves vaccination programs, regular health check-ups, education on healthy lifestyles, and interventions to address social determinants of health. The goal is to reduce morbidity and mortality rates, enhance developmental outcomes, and improve the quality of life for children and their families.
