ADOLESCENCE
Ages 12-19
OVERVIEW
The shift from childhood to adulthood is marked by
adolescence. Generation Z, or Gen Z, is one of the most
vulnerable populations in the country, excelling in self-
directed learning and thriving on technology. Nobody can
deny that adolescents are a significant component of modern
societies in terms of size and population, as well as members
of numerous communities and future parents. As a result, if
they are provided with appropriate health information and
expertise, they will undoubtedly be in the best position to
achieve it. Aside from that, they will be effective champions
for accurate and valid health information, both now and in
the future.
Infectious diseases, malnutrition, accidents, and
sexually transmitted diseases, as well as
cardiovascular ailments and malignancies, are all
risks or issues that adolescents and young people
encounter. These dangers may be the result of
their adolescent lifestyle, cognitive, and behavioral
issues. Mental health issues related to
psychosocial development, adolescent health
education, and unprotected sexual growth
concerns are just a few of the health issues unique
to adolescents.
As a result, we've created a Health Education
program that covers all strategies for developing
and expanding health reserves in order to keep
the scales leaned toward good health. This health
education program helps adolescents obtain
useful health information while also building the
attitudes, beliefs, and practice skills needed to
adopt and sustain healthy practices throughout
their lives.
