Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. It is a dynamic condition that enables individuals to lead productive and satisfying lives by maintaining balance between the body, mind, and social environment. Health is influenced by multiple factors such as genetics, lifestyle, nutrition, education, income, environmental conditions, and access to healthcare services. In the context of operations management in healthcare, health is regarded as the ultimate outcome that healthcare organizations strive to achieve through efficient planning, resource utilization, and quality service delivery. Public health is the science and art of preventing disease, prolonging life, and promoting health through organized efforts of society, communities, governments, and healthcare institutions. Unlike clinical medicine, which focuses on diagnosing and treating individuals, public health concentrates on protecting and improving the health of entire populations. It involves surveillance of diseases, health promotion, environmental sanitation, immunization, policy formulation, health education, and emergency preparedness. Public health adopts a preventive and community-oriented approach that aims to reduce disease burden
