Solving Population Health Problems through Collaboration

Rapid changes in healthcare and public health offer tremendous opportunities to focus on process improvement. Public Health departments/agencies are increasingly interested in working collaboratively with hospitals and other community partners in order to promote knowledge and improve collective impact through public and private sector coalitions. This book brings together leaders in the field to present concrete ways to take advantage of the changing landscape, from evidence-based intervention strategies, case studies in health departments, health equity issues, core competencies, conducting public health campaigns, step-by-step collaboration advice, and much more.
