Options:

Primary health care

Secondary health care

Tertiary health care

All of the above

Correct Answer:

Primary health care

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 1: Primary health care

Primary health care includes education concerning prevailing health problems and methods of identifying, preventing and controlling them; promotion of food supply and proper nutrition and adequate supply of water and basic sanitation; maternal and child health care; immunisation against major infectious diseases and injuries; promotion of mental health and provision of essential drugs.

Here's a breakdown of the other options:

  • Secondary health care: This level of care involves specialized medical attention for more complex conditions, often requiring referral from a primary care provider. It doesn't typically include preventative education.
  • Tertiary health care: This is the highest level of care, often involving specialized hospitals or medical centers for complex treatments and procedures. It also doesn't prioritize preventative education.
