Priority Areas
HOP focuses on six priority
areas that aim to increase access to care, quality of health services,
and organizational sustainability.
Health Outreach and Enabling Services represent a broad spectrum
of activities that facilitate access to health services, including case
management, transportation, interpretation, and helping patients navigate
the health care system.
Program Planning and Development are fundamental processes used
to strategically set goals, maximize resources, and ultimately make
organizations more sustainable.
Needs Assessment and Evaluation Data increase access to care by
allowing organizations to design responsive programs, evaluate and improve
upon activities, and document the effectiveness of outreach.
Health Education and Promotion are key components of a patient-centered
health care model, enabling individuals to become active partners in
their own health care.
Community Collaboration and Coalition Building are critical strategies
that ensure a comprehensive, complementary, and sustainable system of
care in the community.
Cultural Competency values the unique characteristics of diverse
populations and ensures quality health care that is both respectful
and responsive.
