Classmate Post:
 
I would prioritize three critical issues, Mental Health support, Health education and maternal care. As we progress through the years there is an increase in mental health issues within the public. I would create multiple programs that would help people recognize and manage their depression, stress and or anxiety. If the public was aware of how their lifestyle effected their health, I believe many people would make changes to their daily habits. Health education plays a large role in preventive care for the public. From personal experience maternal care is very crucial, most of the time that I get called in to the hospital to scrub a stat emergency caesarean section, is due to the mother not having any prenatal care. There are plenty of causalities and complications that can be avoided for the mother and baby by having regular prenatal check ups. Prenatal and postnatal care should be encouraged and be easily accessed to the public.
