DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY MEDICINE


Community Medicine deals with the provision of promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative services, with a holistic approach primarily focusing on Community Health. The department is involved in activities like undergraduate, interns and postgraduate trainings. While the traditional healthcare system focuses on treating disease and symptoms of disease, community medicine is unique in that it focuses on prevention. Prevention in this context has many facets, addressing mental and physical health as well as the social determinants of health such as race, economics, and environment.
