OUR COLLABORATIVE
At CPHC, we believe that community health and healthcare are essential cornerstones of well-being, requiring dedicated resources, ongoing development, and a commitment to continuous improvement. Recognizing this vital need, our Collaborative was established to unite diverse resources in pursuit of a shared national priority: advancing the health and healthcare of communities. Our projects are strategically focused on enhancing health systems in ways that deliver tangible value directly to the people they serve.
Our work involves leveraging research, performance enhancement methods, and innovative technologies to benefit communities. We define "community" broadly, recognizing it as a group of individuals connected by shared experiences. This allows us to tailor our approach to address specific health challenges related to diseases, geographic locations, cultural backgrounds, disabilities, and affiliations with particular organizations.
​
We recognize the invaluable insights that the community voice brings to our work with clients. We are committed to amplifying community voices, ensuring that their lived experiences are central to our efforts. By actively listening and understanding community perspectives, we can develop more effective and targeted engagement strategies, moving beyond trial and error to achieve impactful outcomes. Our goal is to empower communities with the resources and support they need to drive positive and lasting change in their circumstances.
​
Our dedicated team of Collaborators bring the wealth of experience needed to bring so many resources to bear for improved community health. Gained from working within public, private, and governmental health organizations the CPHC roster is deep and varied. We are collectively driven by a shared passion for building sustainable capacity within communities, grounded in a deep understanding of their unique assets and needs.
THE COMMUNITY VOICE
Our engagements focus on the population served by the Client. When we refer to a Community, we speak of a population of individuals with a shared lived experience. That linkage could be disease state, disability, geography, or any other commonality that allows for the aggregation of their voices.
We endeavor to bring their experience to the forefront so that they feel tended to and the Client can discern between individual anecdotes and sustained trends.
PARTICIPATORY ACTION RESEARCH
A great deal of research in the health and healthcare industry is conducted for scientific benefit. We believe just as medical research can change the course of patient’s lives, rigorous evaluation of patient opinion and experience can be transformative.
By focusing solely on the health and healthcare industry our Collaborators establish a long-term commitment to collaborating with communities in need of health services and seeing the patient perspective become instrumental in all facets of the industry.
