摘要

This handbook is a tool for everyone working to create heart-healthy and stroke free communities across America. Health advocates are recognizing that creating and sustaining healthy communities requires fundamental social change that goes far beyond the individual patient education approach of many traditional public health programs. However, changing the social environment has proved even more challenging than trying to modify individual lifestyle choices. The first step to improving the social environment is to accurately identify its health-promoting and health-damaging characteristics. In this handbook, public health professionals, advocacy groups, and concerned community and state leaders will find specific ideas and strategies for identifying barriers and promoters for heart-healthy and stroke-free living in local environments. Although many public health tools are available for 'community diagnosis,' this handbook is unique because of its particular focus on prevention and treatment of heart disease and stroke. All of the specific examples, tables, and worksheets relate directly to heart disease and stroke risk factors, prevention challenges, and treatment issues. We have attempted to present the information and ideas in the handbook in an accessible, straightforward fashion so that a wide range of users-from motivated school, church, and community leaders to highly trained local public health professionals-will find something useful in these pages.
