The people and resources that provide health care to members of the community, as well as the community services that people need to meet their physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, and occupational needs
The elements of community diagnosis include identifying the health needs of the population, assessing the social determinants of health, analyzing existing health data, engaging with community stakeholders, and developing plans for interventions or programs to address identified issues.
Human being is a social animal. You can not live without society. Health is the feeling of physical, mental and spiritual wel-being Now you have two aspects of social health. On negative aspect there is somebody ill in the society you live in. He can be a reservoir of the disease and is a threat to the society. So he needs to be treated by society to maintain the health of society (for example, the case of Typhoid Mary). On positive side, you want your surrounding healthy, so that you should feel healthy. So the concept of social health depends on positive social health in the developed societies.
Start by identifying the problems, and then learning about them. Here's a start: In most American communities, the average age is increasing, as is lifespan. So we see an increasing geriatric population whose health needs are more intense and tons more expensive. Solve: What programs can be conceived that would deliver higher quality health care to the increased needs, elderly patient in your community? That one's complex, but you can break it down. One example is reducing food and maintenance costs to allow for more free money that can be applied to medical care. You get the idea.
Social issues can have a profound impact on communities by creating divisions, hindering progress, and affecting overall well-being. They can lead to increased crime rates, mental health issues, and economic instability, ultimately weakening the social fabric of the community. Addressing social issues through education, advocacy, and community involvement is crucial for promoting positive change and fostering a healthier environment for all members.

All of the above are correct.
There are genetic influences, environmental influences, behavioral influences, and events unforeseen. The biggest influence on your health is your attitude. If you make choices that maximize good influences and minimizes the negative influences, the better odds will be that you will stay healthy.
