Purpose
The purpose of the Population Health Management project is to develop a systematic approach to population health management in Hounslow.
The approach aims to:
- Use data and engagement to understand the needs of our residents
- Identify and target those who will benefit most from interventions
- Develop evidence-based interventions
- Embed evaluation to understand impact.

The Hounslow Public Health team will be hosting the following Lunch and Learn events for all colleagues:
Population Health Management Framework training materials are available via the BBP Resource Centre in the Population Health Management folder:

Next Steps/Forward Plan
Our fifth lunch and learn will focus on using research, including use of behavioural insights, to inform services and intervention design.
After that, lunch and learns will be quarterly and case studies will be presented at the BBP Huddle meetings.
Key projects using PHM will be supported including the Pre-Surgery Clinic project which launched in January 2024 and our CORE20PLUS5 projects which aim to use PHM to reduce inequalities.
