Public health consolidates the interdisciplinary methodologies of the epidemiology, bio-statistics and health care services. Natural health, group health, behavioral health, psychological health and occupational safety and health are other main sub fields. The concentration of public health intervention is to enhance health and quality of life through prevention and treatment of disorders and other physical and psychological wellness conditions. Community medicine is one of the important branches in medicine which deals with the health of the people of a community or region.
