The American Heart Association (AHA) offers a comprehensive guide for conducting community health assessments and creating improvement plans through its Community Health Assessment toolkit. This valuable resource is aimed at hospitals and healthcare providers looking to engage with their communities effectively and address health needs efficiently.
During Community Health Improvement Week, which takes place from June 10-14, AHA is showcasing new case studies that demonstrate how hospitals have successfully used the toolkit. One of these case studies highlights BJC HealthCare’s innovative approach to community engagement. BJC HealthCare focuses on inspiring the community to prioritize health every day through various initiatives such as financial health and well-being, school health and wellness, infant and maternal health, and improving access to healthy food for individuals with diabetes.
By providing real-life examples of how hospitals are using the toolkit, AHA aims to encourage other healthcare providers to take a collaborative approach to community health improvement. The insights shared in the case studies can help healthcare organizations tailor their strategies to better meet the specific needs of their communities.
