  hph concepts
Developing / analysing concepts and implementation strategies, collecting experiences, presenting and publishing

The Centre supports health promotion in hospitals and health services by conceptual developments, development of guidelines and implementation strategies, as well as practical experiences. Conceptual developments cover the whole range of the HPH concept. This concept aims at improving the health of hospital patients, staff and the community population, both by means of improving the quality of hospital services, and by offering additional services where necessary. Strategies for all target groups aim at improving self management of health (including health / disease literacy, lifestyles etc.), improving the co-production of health, at improving the health impact of the hospital setting, and at supporting communities to improve their health impacts on the target groups.
