Colleagues
I am very pleased to share with you a recent video developed by the
Sudbury & District Health Unit as part of our ongoing public health
efforts to improve health equity: Let?s start a conversation about
health?and not talk about health care at all.

(note that the flash version currently has better resolution)
Let?s start a conversation about health?and not talk about health care at
all is a five minute video highlighting that HEALTH is about much more
than access to medical care. It highlights that everyone has different
opportunities for health, largely influenced by their social and economic
conditions. Using this broad view of health, the video describes actions
that various non-health sectors can take. It encourages everyone ?
teachers, builders, dads, nurses, business women, students, politicians?
to start a conversation about health? and not talk about health care at
all.
I would be very pleased to hear your feedback at
[log in to unmask] or to me directly.
Please note that the French version of the video and a User?s Guide will
be released in early fall 2011. I encourage you to further share and make
use of this video for public health purposes.
Thank you very much,
Penny
