4 Small Changes

This is a picture of a doctor talking to a patient.

The 4 Small Changes strategy was created to advocate for individual behaviour change through the development, implementation, and monitoring of policies related to the four priority areas that support and promote healthy living. This section is designed to provide information and resources to support health agencies in advocating for a healthier lifestyle for both their staff and clients.

The sector encompasses a variety of different health organizations from small health agencies to large hospitals. Health organizations, hospitals and health professionals are uniquely placed to assist their clients to achieve healthier lives. Patients/clients trust the advice of their health care providers and of credible health care organizations. The Health Sector is uniquely positioned to impact policy change, leading to a reduction in chronic disease, mental illness and injury in health organizations and residents of Windsor-Essex County.

The 4 Small Changes sections will provide you with great links and policy resources that will assist your agency to create and sustain a healthy workplace environment for the staff, volunteers and clients.
