What is community and health services?

Community health is all about looking after the wellbeing of the people in your local area.

That includes:

  • Mental health
  • Health promotion, including ensuring physical activity education, immunisation information and sexual health education
  • Allied Health
  • Support services for aboriginal and Torres strait islander people and other minority groups
  • Palliative Care and acute care
  • Occupational Therapy, physiotherapy, chiropractic etc.
  • Child health and childcare
  • Podiatry services
  • Speech therapy, speech pathology and audiology
  • Disability services and community care
  • Aged care and home care services
  • Women’s health and maternity services 
  • Social work
  • Dietetics and nutrition

Anything that involves community services, care services or community health is counted as community and health services.

Why study community and health services?

If you’re interested in becoming one of many health professionals working in community health services, working in the public health system or just supporting the local community, a course can help you progress in your career. 

The Australian Department of health is one of our biggest employers, and with chronic disease, health conditions, and support programs for mental health issues at an all-time high, employment for people working in healthcare services and community services.

How to study

Whether you’re interested in working in an emergency department or a community health centre, there’s a course available. With the prevalence of human services being communicated online, there are online courses for a range of services. A great deal of health information can be taught through the internet in the home, with courses that require in-person learning done in class. 

Courses are available in areas like primary health care, local community services, the health system and administration, general practice administration (including writing annual reports), and other public health services. 

If you think working in the health sector within your community could be for you, then a course in community & health services could be perfect. Browse our list of available courses to start today!
