Population Health Frameworks

Each fall,  second year medical and graduate nursing students spend two weeks in community health settings,

• learning more about the prevalence of specific conditions within a certain population,
• exploring the inter-professional networks of care surrounding different population groups, and
• investigating the advocacy resources available at local, regional and national levels.

 We share that information with you below in the form of Population Health Framework documents.  These worksheets are completed by teams every October. If there's something you think would make these info sheets more useful, please send feedback to Heather-Lyn Haley.
