Welcome to the ODHIN project

ODHIN (Optimizing delivery of health care interventions) was a four-year project (2011-2014) involving research institutions from nine European countries funded under the 7th Framework Programme.
The general aim of the project was to improve the delivery of health care interventions by understanding how better to translate the results of clinical research into everyday clinical practice. The research focused on the implementation of identification and brief intervention (IBI) programmes for hazardous and harmful alcohol consumption (HHAC) in primary health care (PHC).
