Prevention-Based Health and Care (PBHC) Framework

Unhealthy diets are now a leading global public health risk, contributing to noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) including obesity, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and cancers. Public Health Wales (PHW) have developed the Prevention-Based Health and Care (PBHC) Framework, which identifies fundamental components needed to shift the health and care system towards a prevention-based approach.

The Framework acts as an umbrella, bringing together a number of well-established approaches and is intended to be aligned to work across the system, including on inequalities, population health management, healthcare public health, healthcare pathways and work across sectors and national programmes to embed health in all policies.
