Public Health Careers
Public health is about helping people to stay healthy and protecting them from threats to their health
A New Public Health Careers workspace has been developed in order to promote a better understanding of the diversity of public health careers and roles there are within 'public health'. There are a wide variety of Public Health roles and these can be found many different organisations and services that help promote and protect health.
We have aimed to pool together a range of resources from a wide variety of system partners, we hope that you will find this useful.
As this is on NHS Futures, you do need to register for a free account if you don’t have one already.
This workspace is currently still being development and should be viewed as a 'Beta' release for feedback and ongoing improvement.
