Rural health refers to the branch of public health and healthcare that focuses on improving the health and well-being of people living in rural or remote areas. It encompasses the study of health issues, healthcare access, and health outcomes in these communities. Rural health often addresses challenges such as geographical barriers, a shortage of healthcare providers, limited access to medical facilities, and the prevalence of specific health issues that may differ from urban settings.
