Health Planning - Systems, Service & Facilities
The AAHP Capability Framework identifies 3 key pillars of Health Planning:
- System Planning – Centered on population health outcomes, system planning emphasizes effective strategies, multi-sector collaboration, and evidence-based approaches to deliver equitable healthcare.
- Service Planning – Driven by research, data analysis, and geographic factors, service planning identifies needs, eliminates inefficiencies, and fosters collaboration within a safe and effective health system.
- Facility Planning – Focused on functionality, operational efficiency, departmental relationships, and infection control, facility planning ensures infrastructure is sustainable, adaptable, safe, and accessible.
Which Health Planning stream do you predominately work within based on the definitions provided. If your role does not align with these definitions please tell us more about your health planning activities below.*
