At the Public Health Institute of Denver Health (PHIDH), our dedication to high-quality clinical services and meaningful public health programs is matched only by the dedication of our behind-the-scenes teams. This month, we want to introduce you to the people who ensure that our vision becomes a reality.
In public health, the most sustainable change happens when communities lead the conversation. True health equity is built alongside those it serves, through transparent partnerships, shared decision-making and investments that reflect real community needs.
As vaccine hesitancy rises and confusion persists around pediatric vaccine schedules, a new national study offers clear evidence supporting the importance of hepatitis B vaccination at birth.
Each April, public health organizations across the U.S. celebrate National Public Health Week (NPHW). But good health doesn’t just happen. At The Public Health Institute at Denver Health (PHIDH), we’re building a healthier, more equitable world through exceptional patient care, transformative training, cutting-edge research and deep, trusting partnerships with our communities and partners.
This year’s World Tuberculosis (TB) Day highlights the theme “Yes! We can end TB!”—a call for sustained commitment to global TB elimination.
TB remains a leading cause of infectious disease mortality worldwide. Ending TB strengthens health systems and contributes to national and global health security. In 2024, 10.7 million people developed TB and 1.24 million died from the disease.
Vaccines are one of history’s most important public health achievements. Their core purpose is to prevent illness, reduce suffering, and eliminate disease.
A national advisory committee voted today to change its guidance on newborn hepatitis B vaccination, recommending shared decision-making rather than universal vaccination for infants born to hepatitis B-negative mothers. Despite this shift, Denver Health will continue recommending the hepatitis B vaccine on the day of birth for all newborns. This decision is based on the presence of hepatitis B in our community, the risk of exposure from mothers without prenatal care or household contacts and the continued safety and effectiveness of the vaccine.
As a trusted partner in the community, Denver Health remains committed to providing clear, science-based information about vaccines. This is especially important as flu and RSV season begins, when recommended vaccines play a critical role in protecting children, older adults and individuals with compromised health. Accurate, evidence-based information is essential to keeping our community safe — and recent updates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have created unnecessary confusion that must be addressed.
A national study led by Denver Health researchers and funded by an investigator-initiated grant from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that emergency departments (EDs) can be powerful partners in public health—especially when embedded in a system designed to learn and improve.
