Popis: | Health in Seychelles has improved significantly over the past three decades, largely as a result of investment not only in the health services, but also in other social sectors that have direct impact on child survival and the health of individuals. Through different stages of the evolution of the health care system there have been close links between health policy and strategy, the overall national development efforts and the wider social and economic environment. Awareness of these links are useful in the understanding of current health issues such as the lifestyle related patterns of morbidity and mortality, characterised by non-communicable diseases and HIV/AIDS, the high demands for health care services, and evolving relationships between the public and private sectors. |
