An integrated approach to preventing and managing overweight and obesity within the City of Cockburn

Conclusions, discussion and lessons learned:As of June 30th, 2019 the CHLP had 212 active clients attending at least one health assessment. A recent client satisfaction survey showed that 79% of respondents felt that their health would improve after the care that they received. Among those who had attended a review health assessment 56% had reduced their weight. Effective communication including a shared database are critical to this integrated approach.References1.
