Work may include health education, disease prevention, rehabilitation guidance, home care, etc. If you are interested in aging, chronic disease management or public health, community care may be a good choice.
Maternal and child health care focuses on the health care of pregnant women and newborns, and provides support for novice mothers and babies. Work may include prenatal and postnatal health monitoring, breastfeeding guidance, neonatal care, maternal mental health consultation, etc. If you like newborns and love the field of maternal and child health, then maternal and child care may be more suitable for you.

At the same time, no matter which field you choose, you need comprehensive and systematic study and practice to improve your professional level and practical operation ability.
