A New Model for Primary Care in Liberia
The BCMS Global Community Health and Family Wellness Hub (CHFWH) Model offers an integrated, community-based primary care system tailored for Liberia. This model deviates from traditional clinic care by integrating preventive health, education, technology, community outreach, and economic empowerment into a unified system designed to make healthcare more accessible to families.
This model offers a departure from standard clinic care by combining preventive health, education, technology, community outreach, and economic empowerment into a single system to enhance healthcare accessibility for families. Accessibility, affordability, prevention, cultural responsiveness, and community leadership are the core tenets of this model for primary care. The CHFWH Model prioritizes disease prevention, healthy living promotion, and community reinforcement through ongoing involvement over awaiting sickness to arise.
