NVIPC Educational Programs PARTNERSHIP FOR HEALTHIER KIDS Inova Health System Falls Church, Virginia Case Story A girl in the fifth grade at a Fairfax County Public elementary school was absent for four days. When her teacher called home to find out how the child was doing, she learned that the girl had fallen and hurt her foot so badly that she could not walk on it. Although both her parents worked, the family had no health insurance and did not know where or how to obtain medical care for her, so they kept her at home, hoping her injury would heal. The family eagerly accepted assistance from Partnership for Healthier Kids, which provided the necessary referrals. The little girl got the treatment she needed for her broken foot and returned to school. Program Description - Inova Health System's Partnership for Healthier Kids is an intensive prevention and care coordination program focused on schools, families and neighborhoods. The Partnership has spent two years developing and testing programs to bring health and safety assessment, preventive health care education, and care coordination to children and their families through elementary schools. The program has been built on thorough and sound collection of data to pinpoint needs and opportunities. The Partnership was created to increase the percentage of children who receive immunizations, injury and smoking prevention services, and have a source of coordinated primary care for their preventive and episodic healthcare.
