What is a healthy community?
Participants answered the question “What is a healthy community?”
They were encouraged to think beyond their current conceptions of healthcare to their ideal visions of what it means to be healthy in all aspects of life. A selection of key words from the responses are arranged below. The size of a word corresponds to the frequency of its use in the combined responses.
How Health is Evaluated in Dodge County
+ County Health Rankings, which are destermined by:
- Health Outcomes: morbidity and mortality, health related quality of life and percent of low birth weight infants.) - Health Factors: health behaviors (smoking, diet, exercise, alcohol use), clinical care, socioeconomic factors and physical environment.+ Assessing Residents' Primary Concerns About Health (as gathered through community surveys): - Lack of exercise - Obesity and overweight adults - Unhealthy eating habits - Obesity in kids - Tobacco use in adults and youth+ State Health Improvement Program (S.H.I.P.) grant designed to promote health in the following areas: - Physical activity , nutrition, healthy weight, and healthy activity in: ~ Schools ~ The community ~ Work sites ~ Healthcare institutions+ S.H.I.P. funded the following ventures: - Snack carts in schools - Free swim days - Healthier school lunches - School gardens

+ Planning for new clinic started 15 months ago; interest in understanding what health truly means to this community.
+ Physical spaces do not define healthcare. The majority of " health " happens outside of clinic walls.
+ "How can we [ healthcare professionals] help you to stay healthy, [before you get sick]?"
+ We'd like to know how we can partner with members of the community to help create a healthy community.
+ So far there are no dates, timelines, locations, bulding plans etc.

+ To reform health[care], is to have a bigger vision of what health means, and what we are going to do to improve health for everybody.
+ " The cost of healthcare is everything a community uses in a year multiplied by the price of those things. Everything we do reflects that. When we don't eat well, for instance, that may create trouble or aggravate [health] problems."
+ Health and healthcare, in the future, are not a reflection of a clinic or hospital.
+ Healthcare professionals can make more of an impact outside of the clinic or hospital.
+ Ask yourself " What would we like to do in Dodge County that would improve the health of the community and improve our experience with 'the [healthcare] system'? "
+ In C.F.I. research, people understood health to mean that they could do everything they had to do in their day-to-day lives.
+The Triple Aim of new healthcare delivery systems is to: 1. Improve individual health 2. Improve community health 3. Reduce overall costs.
+ Overall, the costs of healthcare are rising. Without solutions to reduce the cost of healthcare, we may have to make choices in the future about whether to pay for healthcare or for education, for example. We would rather it be the communities in question that provide their own solutions, rather than have someone else tell them how it should be done.
