CLINICAL HEALTH PROMOTION CENTRE
WHO Collaborating Centre for Implementation of Evidence-Based Clinical Health Promotion
Welcome
Welcome to the Clinical Health Promotion Centre, a WHO Collaborating Centre with Lund University and Region Skåne, for the Implementation of Evidence-Based Clinical Health Promotion focusing on Alcohol, Tobacco, Drug, Malnutrition, Overweight, Physical Inactivity and Comorbidity (noncommunicable diseases).
Our Mission
"A critical stage in life is when a person becomes a patient and enters a short or longer clinical pathway. To undergo treatment is stressful, both physically and mentally. To improve patient treatment and promote a faster recovery is therefore important, both for the patient and society"
- Professor Hanne Tönnesen
Our mission is to work towards better health gains for patients, staff and community via the following avenues of clinical health promotion:
-
Fast-track implementation of patient-centered health promotion
-
Research, education, networks, communication and programs for integrated clinical pathways
-
Establishing evidence and translating into practice:
-
by collecting evidence to be used for fast-track implementation
-
by disseminating evidence and tools
