Community health Nursing is the synthesis of nursing and public health practice applied to promote and protect the health of population. It combines all the basic elements of professional, clinical nursing with public health and community practice.

The purpose of the Diploma (Dip) in Public Health is to provide an educational opportunity for working professionals for acquiring, strengthening and deepening knowledge and skills to effectively contribute to strengthening health systems and programmes. The qualification is intended to achieve a skilled workforce who are able to assess, plan, implement, manage, monitor and evaluate public health programmes, services or interventions at any level of the health system. Upon achievement of the qualification, a learner will be able to apply public health knowledge, tools, and skills in solving complex problems in healthcare by using a systems approach and evidence-based interventions. The public health tools of epidemiology and biostatistics will enable learners to measure the health status of populations, plan appropriate interventions and interpret the outcomes of interventions. Health promotion and primary healthcare knowledge and skills will aid the learner in designing programmes that focus on disease prevention and health promotion while disease control knowledge and skills will ensure that learners are able to use appropriate disease control strategies. An evidence-based approach is strengthened by the learners’ opportunity to plan a research project that addresses a gap or need.
