Let's Start a Conversation About Health . . . and Not Talk About Health Care at All
a video produced by the Sudbury and District Health Unit that invites us all to reframe more traditional discussions of health care by acknowledging that people's opportunities for health are largely influenced by broader social and economic conditions that have little to do with access to medical care.
Using this broader view, the video highlights how the actions of different, non-health sectors contribute to a community's prosperity and, in doing so, can positively impact people's overall health. Ultimately, this video's call to action is for everyone - teachers, builders, dads, nurses, business women, students and politicians - to start a conversation about health - and not talk about health care at all.
