11 Why Should PHNs Be Involved in Million Hearts? Million Hearts provides an opportunity to work with a national program Enumeration and Characterization of the Public Health Nurse Workforce (2012) national initiatives provide new opportunities for emerging roles in PHN focused on community health promotion and prevention practices. (Kulbock, Thatcher, Park & Meszaros, 2012). Recommendation from the 2012 Future of Public Health Nursing Forum

12 Why Should PHNs Be Involved in Million Hearts? It s time to reach those at. risk for hypertension or with hypertension at the POPULATION level The Million Hearts Initiative provides the framework and evidence-base, but there is more work to do. We have learned that chronic conditions cannot be most effectively treated only at the individual level. PHN has the tools to do this work at the population level.
