: Health Care and Sociology is taught to students of nursing and other health care fields, to relate their body of health sociology knowledge to the social, political and economic realities. They make it plain that understanding these interrelationships is fundamental to sound clinical and community-based practice. : Nurses learn various theoretical perspectives in a lucid, even handed way and demonstrate their relevance to professional research and practice with relevant case studies. : Demographic and social health data give students useful parameters for identifying local community needs. Sociological insights enable student to appreciate what it means to be hospitalised, to experience chronic illness, physical disability and mental disorders and to face dying; and also what it means to the family, nurse and carer in a changing society, to have to contend with the changed National Health Service and a restructured workforce. : The short and sweet of it is a nurse or doctor just doesn't provide good health care alone to the individual patients but to have compassion and to try and understand the pyschological problems some patients may have with certain diseases and fear of pain to death. :

Understanding the social aspects of health can help healthcare professionals provide more effective care and address health inequalities. Medical sociologists also study how social factors impact health outcomes and medical practices.
