Show moreHealth promotion and community intervention models are available for community projects. Project volunteers with business backgrounds may lack knowledge of these models, but be familiar with business plans. This study analyzed a community project using the Planned Approach to Community Health (PATCH) model and a business plan and proposed a new model based on that analysis.
