Motivation
Education for health begins with people. It hopes to motivate them with whatever interests they may have in improving their living conditions.
Its aim come is to develop in them a sense of responsibility for health
conditions for themselves as individuals, as members of families, and
as communities. In communicable disease control, health education
commonly includes an appraisal of what is known by a population about a
disease, an assessment of habits and attitudes of the people as they
relate to spread and frequency of the disease, and the presentation of
specific means to remedy observed deficiencies.
Health education is also an effective tool that helps improve health
in developing nations. It not only teaches prevention and basic health
knowledge but also conditions ideas that re-shape everyday habits of
people with unhealthy lifestyles in developing countries. This type of
conditioning not only affects the immediate recipients of such education
but also future generations will benefit from an improved and properly
cultivated ideas about health that will eventually be ingrained with
widely spread health education. Moreover, besides physical health
prevention, health education can also provide more aid and help people
deal healthier with situations of extreme stress, anxiety, depression or
other emotional disturbances to lessen the impact of these sorts of
mental and emotional constituents, which can consequently lead to
detrimental physical effects
