Summary
The University of Montana and St. Patrick Hospital have launched the RESOLVE initiative to tackle the rural health crisis by creating evidence-based care models tailored to rural communities. This collaboration brings together caregivers, researchers, and philanthropic partners, aiming to ensure that local voices shape healthcare decisions and governance. Key early projects will address cardiovascular health, air quality, and emergency responses to extreme weather, with the goal of integrating shared data to enhance the effectiveness of rural healthcare interventions. By seeking both philanthropic and governmental funding, RESOLVE aspires to achieve sustainability by 2026 and contribute to reducing healthcare disparities in rural populations.
