OHPE Bulletin #144.1, The HHRC Sustainability Model

This article was prepared by Anne Lessio who is the Training Manager at the
Heart Health Resource Centre. She is responsible for administering the
center's training workshops and consultation service. Previously Anne was
the Project Manager of the "A Change of Heart" heart health demonstration
site and learned first hand the complexity of and time required for
successful sustainability efforts.

H. FOR MORE INFORMATION

The HHRC has developed a workbook, executive summary (in a newsletter
format), and workshops based on the HHRC Sustainability Model. Research
articles supporting this information are also available at the HHRC.
Finally, all the factors for each of the four components are listed in a
worksheet format facilitating a community's ability to implement the
Sustainability Model. If you would like more information, you may contact
Anne Lessio at [log in to unmask]

Since the mandate of the HHRC is specifically to support the OHHP, and the
applicability of the HHRC Sustainability Model is far greater than heart
health, the HHRC has entered discussions with the Ministry of Health and
Long Term Care and with other generic resource centers to ensure that the
sustainability model itself will be sustained.
