The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) is the voice of nearly 3,000 local health departments (LHDs) across the country. These city, county, metropolitan, and district health departments work to protect and improve the health of all people and communities. NACCHO provides capacity-building resources to LHDs (i.e., trainings, webinars, access to subject matter experts, peer discussion) that support the development and implementation of public health policies and practices.
With support from CDC, NACCHO is seeking a consultant, or consulting firm, to support the creation and implementation of an Essential (“Soft”) Skills Training curriculum of professional learning and capacity development services for LHDs doing work in healthcare settings including long-term care facilities to support IPC activities. The training initiative will include five (5) key areas of concentration: relationship and collaboration, communication, emotional intelligence, cultural competency with an equity focus, and creating the environment; all areas which LHD staff identified as essential. NACCHO intends to engage this experienced outside expert to work collaboratively in the development of the essential skills curriculum for approximately 200 LHD staff engaged in IPC activities.
