The North Colorado Health Alliance hosts the Regional Health Connector (RHC) for Weld County. RHCs are local residents whose full-time job is to improve the coordination of local services to advance health and address the social determinants of health. They focus on connections among clinical care, community organizations, public health, human services and other partners.
RHCs enhance the support available to providers and their patients by:
- Connecting practices with resources to improve health, such as community tobacco cessation groups, local chronic disease management programs, school-based health services, and mental health response training.
- Assessing needs for practice transformation support and making connections to the appropriate program such as EvidenceNOW Southwest, the Colorado State Innovation Model, Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative, Regional Care Collaborative Organizations, and more.
