As the United States faces increasingly difficult and trenchant
public health problems, from the Zika virus to the obesity epidemic
to the opioid crisis, population health is a growing area of
concern for public health organizations, particularly how to care
for populations effectively on a shoestring budget. Though little
discussed in the mainstream media, community health improvement
organizations are increasingly partnering and forming coalitions
with local hospitals, working together to improve traditional
medical care. But with the pace of change in health care policy,
these coalitions must be thoughtfully lead and managed. This new
book from John W. Moran, Senior Quality Advisor to the Public
Health Foundation, demonstrates how to build, operate, manage, and
sustain a community health improvement coalition once it is formed.
Offering the reader practical examples and guidance on forming and
sustaining a community health coalition, this book demonstrates the
ways in which the success of a coalition depends upon a stable
anchor organization and a committed leader. Chapters focus on each
of these roles and how to achieve success in each: examining what
needs improvement, why it is important to improve now, how it will
be done, and where in the community improvement can have the most
impact. The last chapter offers a case study exploring a community
health coalition and leader to illustrate application of the
concepts introduced throughout the book. Transforming Community
Health through Leadership is designed specifically to prepare
governmental public health, health care, and community leaders to
take advantage of the ever-changing landscape of public health and
health care in concrete ways to improve population health.
Rapid changes in healthcare and public health offer tremendous
opportunities to focus on process improvement. Public health
departments and agencies increasingly work collaboratively with
hospitals and other community partners to promote knowledge and
improve collective impact through public and private sector
coalitions. Solving Population Health Problems through
Collaboration brings together population health experts and leaders
to examine evidence-based intervention strategies, case studies in
health departments and hospitals, health equity issues, core
competencies, public health campaigns, step-by-step collaboration
advice, and much more. Each chapter is written by a population
health leader shaped by his or her experience implementing change
in a community's health, to demonstrate innovative methods and
tools for building and leading sustainable community coalitions to
effect real change. Designed to prepare population health workers
in public health and healthcare settings to develop strategies for
improved population health, this book is required reading for
public health managers and health administrators as well as
students enrolled in population health courses.
