  • Wellness now a major focus of health ministry

    The Government is expanding its focus on the physical well-being of Jamaicans as a major plank of what Dr Christopher Tufton said is the Administration's vision and strategic and operational direction for public health.

    As such, Tufton, the health minister, yesterday announced that his ministry has been renamed the Ministry of Health and Wellness as “there is the need to address the whole person, through a greater emphasis on wellness”.

    Tufton made the announcement in his contribution to the sectoral debate in Parliament, during which he tabled four ministry papers, among them a Green Paper on a National Health Insurance Plan for Jamaica designed to “provide appropriate levels of access, coverage and financial protection to the population”.

    The Wellness concept has been around since the late 80s & 90s.
