Approaches to Community Wellbeing

Approaches to Community Wellbeing is the name of the public health system in the region, and a department within SLFNHA. Approaches to Community Wellbeing (ACW) looks at the health of the community or population as a whole, instead of individuals. It focuses on the prevention of illnesses and the promotion of healthy lifestyles, as opposed to treating illnesses.  ACW looks at what needs to be in place in systems or communities in order to keep people as healthy as possible for as long as possible.
