Why Public Health?
Working in Public Health is a rewarding career as it provides the opportunity to improve the health and wellbeing of the population. Through the work we undertake within the Public Health division, we reduce health inequalities to ensure that all residents in Nottinghamshire have the opportunity to benefit from a healthy life and that local communities are protected from communicable diseases and environmental hazards. This is driven by the Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy.
Working in Public Health provides the opportunity to work with multiple partners and make a real difference to the health of the local population, which in turn reduces the pressure on the NHS, Social Care and other public services.
