Providing appropriate and complementing health services to the public may be facilitated by developing strategic partnerships through which team building of health care providers can result in the desired evidence-based health services. This session will provide four successful examples of how this has occurred: • A local public health departments partnering with academia can work together to advance common interests. • A health organization bringing together key stakeholders within its organization to educate/train them for improvement in the delivery of health care. • A local health department working with an educational system to produce future public health workforce. • A local health department working with multiple metropolitan hospitals by way of forums, training, and exercises to integrate planning and preparedness efforts. | |||
