Integrating community health into primary care: two case studies from Barcelona's Raval neighborhood
The findings underscore the critical role of primary care in identifying community needs and adapting services to meet the requirements of vulnerable populations through innovative approaches recommended by WHO and Medicus Mundi. Insights gained from these grassroots, bottom-up initiatives -driven by healthcare practitioners and conducted mostly during their free time- have been translated into actionable recommendations for policy and practice.
