In the SPARC model, there is community-wide access to routine
clinical preventive services. In addition to measures delivered in the clinical
setting, residents receive routine vaccinations, screenings, and screening
referrals from multiple locations in the community. SPARC helps organize and
coordinate these activities, gathers and distributes outcomes data, and develops
new outreach programs in collaboration with local medical, public health, and
social service agencies.
