Planning primary care services using a public health framework presents an opportunity for practitioners to impact community health. Access Community Health Network’s Stand Against Cancer program provides a useful model for understanding how community mobilization, public health policy, primary care services and evaluation can be aligned to impact individual patient health outcomes and the health of the community.

Learning Areas:

Planning of health education strategies, interventions, and programs
Public health or related public policy

Learning Objectives:
Describe a planning framework for integrating public health approaches into primary care. Identify community engagement strategies to support public health goals. Identify ways that community health practice can inform public health policy.
