Health is the word that combine different concepts, health by definition we can say that, “Is the state of complete physical, mental
and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”.
So health combines physical, mental and social, as we know that we suffer
everyday in keeping our health safe, that we can say healthcare, healthcare
this is the situation where by the human being fight against the diseases by
keeping the body safe, the disease like malaria, HIV/AID etc.
Health care, health-care,
or healthcare refers the maintenance or improvement of the
health via the prevention, diagnosis, and treatments of disease, illness, injury, and other physical
and mental impairments in a people.
The access to health care may vary across
countries, communities, societies and
individuals, largely influenced by the social and economic conditions as well
as health policies.
The limitation to health care services
affects negatively the use of medical services, efficacy of treatments, and
overall outcome i.e.. well-being, and mortality rates.
In healthcare, we must care about every disease that can
penetrate in the human body, the disease classified into the following
categories:
Ø Diseases caused by other living
organisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoans, flatworms and
roundworms. So healthcare is all about fighting against this disease.
Ø Diseases that are human-induced or
self-inflicted, these are brought by the human being themselves, sometimes are
known as social disease, like heart
disease, alcoholism, drug abuse, lung cancer, domestic and industrial
accidents. So then healthcare is about fighting against these diseases by
caring.
Ø Deficiency disease, this is the absence
of some nutrients in the every day meal of diet, the diseases such as kwashiorkor and marasmus.

Ø Genetic and congenital (present at
birth) disorders. An example of genetic disorders are like cystic fibrosis, Huntington’s
disease and Down’s syndrome. These diseases is what we consider in healthcare,

Ø Ageing and degenerative diseases,
degeneration of the body tissues can also cause diseases, for example weakening
of the eye muscles causes long-sightedness in many older people.
In healthcare also we must be care about mental illness, this covers a wide variety of
disorders, for example, schizophrenia, senile dementia and depression.

people in different countries like African countries are very suffered from
this disease, that disease is known as HIV/AIDS.
AIDS is thought to have originated in Central Africa, the HIV virus which
causes it then appears to have migrated via Haiti to the USA. Okay, now lets
