Abstract

Health is multifaceted, with each aspect having a significant impact on the person both internally and outwardly in the society in which they live. It is said that the interaction of two sets of circumstances determines what a man is and the diseases to which he may be susceptible. These variables interact, and their effects on health can either be beneficial or detrimental. Thus, communities as a whole and individuals can both be thought of as the end product of numerous interactions conceptually. The more significant factors or variables are biological factors, an individual's health is influenced by a variety of elements, including their surroundings, socioeconomic situation, health care services, population ageing, gender, and behavioural and sociocultural circumstances. WHO defines primary Health Care as "essential health care made universally accessible to individuals and families in the community through means acceptable to them. “through their full participation and at a reasonable cost to the community and country. It is an essential component of both the country's health system, of which it is the nucleus, and the community's overall social and economic development."
