Description
The Principles of Family Medicine form the foundation of holistic, continuous, and patient-centred healthcare delivery in the Higher National Diploma (HND) in Clinical Medicine and Surgery – Family Health Medicine Specialist training. These principles guide healthcare providers in managing patients across all ages, diseases, and healthcare settings while focusing on prevention, treatment, rehabilitation, and health promotion.
