Health Promotion 1

Learners are introduced to the concepts of health promotion as well as the determinants of health and health inequities. Learners develop a beginning knowledge of typical growth and development. Topics include health continuums, health enhancement, health protection, disease prevention, and health restoration (recovery, care, and support). Learners explore advocacy and trauma-informed practice and develop an understanding of how cultural safety and anti-racism in health care impact health and wellness, with a focus on Indigenous-specific anti-racism.
