Sammanfattning
One main argument behind the WHO initiative for a health promoting health
service was that a reorientation towards health would lead to a more effective
health service which could better meet the needs in the society. The other
argument was the need to use the knowledge, contacts and prestige of
hospitals and health services to strengthen public health initiatives. This
concept, which means that health promotion and disease prevention shall
be integrated in all health services has today a strong scientific support.
This concept is the base for the national target for health number 6 and the
development is driven by the Swedish HPH network. Examples on how this
can be done are given in follwing chapters.
