For everywhere else the answer to all but the latter is no.
Why should there be a right to food. I understand if there were legal restrictions on all forms of hunting, fishing and home-farming, but there isn't.
I can build my own house. Most countries have provisions that allow you to do all your own electrical, plumbing and everything on your own property with only minimal restriction. However, there is no restriction on fulfilling the basic need of shelter. Here in Canada you can set up a shack anywhere in like 80% of the land so long as you move if loggers (or presumably miners, etc.) buy the land off the government.
I think most countries are a yes for healthcare mostly because they won't let you practice medicine without a license. However, no one can stop me doing my own stitches or providing my own first-aid, it's generally only second-aid (hospital care) that is restricted solely to trained staff.
