What does RHIP mean in HEALTHCARE

The Randolph Health Improvement Partnership (RHIP) is a public health collaborative formed out of a recognition that there is more work to be done in order to improve the health of people living in Randolph County, North Carolina. RHIP works collectively with county residents, organizations, and area leaders to create community-driven action plans and build partnerships to address key health issues.

RHIP strives to create meaningful change and lasting improvements by focusing on three main strategies: awareness, engagement, and policy change. We are raising awareness about critical public health issues through events, campaigns, data collection, and research; engaging community members by hosting educational programs; and advocating for policy changes at the local level that promote healthy environments.

RHIP promotes evidence-based policies which focus on prevention and prioritize access to healthcare for all individuals. We support policies which aim to reduce harmful behaviors such as vaping, drinking alcohol while pregnant or engaging in risky driving behavior; policies that invest in food security; increases access to mental health services; expands public transportation options; introduces smoke-free environments for outdoor areas; cultivates safe pedestrian walkways and bike lanes; encourages active lifestyles through physical activity programming and more.

Yes! In addition to raising awareness about issues impacting county residents’ health, RHIP also offers educational programs on topics like nutrition education, lifestyle modification strategies for chronic diseases such diabetes or hypertension, stress management skills building workshops, injury prevention classes for youth athletes or adults as well as providing resources on other forms of preventative care.
