Describe community issues that influence health.
Humans live in a community. As a result, our social environment has a significant impact on our own health. When there is open-drain water lying stagnant around where we live in villages, towns, or cities, our physical environment is determined by our social environment. When there is open-drain water lying stagnant around where we live, the risk of poor health increases. As a result, public sanitation makes a significant impact on an individual's health. Other community concerns that have an impact on health include: community issues such as child marriage can have an impact on the health of a girl's baby born to an underage girl.
Sexually transmitted illnesses can also be caused by a lack of community education on sex-related topics. Poor treatment of the disadvantaged can also lead to mental health issues. Individual health requires social equality and good connections among our population. As a result, we can see that personal and community health issues are intertwined.
