Rural health and wellbeing promotion plays a vital role in building healthier, stronger communities.

By addressing unique challenges like limited access to care and lower health literacy, it helps reduce disease, improve wellbeing, and enhance quality of life across rural areas.

The key priorities of Rural Health Promotion include:

✔️ Preventing disease & promoting wellness through tailored local programmes
✔️ Improving access to care with community-based services
✔️ Strengthening health literacy and informed decision-making
✔️ Harnessing the power of close-knit communities
✔️ Tackling social factors like poverty, education, and transport

Each Healthy City or County Programme is delivered through the Local Community Development Committee, through a subgroup made up of an inter-agency partnership from a cross section of key stakeholders including the local community, helping to drive this wellbeing agenda and ensure its prominence within the Local Economic & Community Plan for the City or County.

The work of the Healthy Ireland Coordinator is a collaborative and networking role to encourage implementation of key wellbeing objectives amongst key stakeholders and aligning activity contained within Local Economic & Community Plans 👏

Welcome to Sláintecare Healthy Communities 👇

The Sláintecare Healthy Communities (SHC) Programme is a Healthy Ireland initiative which is part of the Sláintecare health reform agenda and was developed to improve health outcomes in 23 community areas across Ireland where health inequalities are most evident.

With a focus on prevention the Sláintecare Action Plan acknowledges directly that there are many groups of people who require tailored health and social care interventions but that health inequalities are compounded by the wider determinants of health and this is where local government can play a pivotal role to help address the non-medical or health care factors that influence health outcomes.
