Bronx Community Health Network (BCHN) is a not-for-profit organization and Federally Funded Health Center that sponsors 21 community and school-based health centers in the Bronx.
BCHN health centers offer high-quality medical care and related health services for free or at low cost for the entire family, at all stages of life.
BCHN director of programs Tashi Chodon and quality improvement coordinator Winsome Ramsey presented a poster at this year's National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) Community Health Institute (CHI) in late August. The poster highlighted BCHN's work "Addressing Social Determinants of Health Through Integrating Community Health Workers into Health Center PCMH Care Teams."
To enhance the quality of care for people with hypertension, Bronx Community Health Network (BCHN) is piloting a hypertension management program at community-based organizations (CBO) partner sites. BCHN has developed a standardized blood pressure management protocol with educational materials. The purpose of the project is to improve individual hypertension disease management and increase population blood pressure control.
