dc.description.abstract | The Primary Health-Care in Later Life: Improving Service in Bangladesh and Vietnam
(PHILL) project seeks to identify the effectiveness of low-cost, preventive and health promotion
interventions in improving the primary health care (PHC) of people sixty and over in rural
communities in Bangladesh and Vietnam. The three-year project (October 2002-September
2005) is supported by the European Commission (EC) and is being implemented under a four member
partnership. Partner institutions are the Karolinska Institute (K.I) in Sweden, the
Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee (BRAC) in Bangladesh, the Health Strategy and
Policy Institute (HSPI) in Vietnam and University of East Anglia (UEA) in the UK.
The principal strategy of the project is to integrate existing primary health care
infrastructures and promote the active participation of family and community in the health care
of the elderly people. The project defines primary health care as including the first level public
institutional (government health care system), community level (private and voluntary health
services), and self-care at the household and individual levels. | en_US |
