The main objective of the Research Group for Personalised Health Services (PERSONFORSK) is to contribute to research of high quality and international impact that leads to better and more personalised health services. PERSONFORSK has a particular focus on health care where the connection between mental, social and somatic resources and difficulties is important. This goal is that the knowledge contribution from the group should have clear relevance and benefit for health services and people who use health tests.
"Research Group for Personalised Health Services (PERSONFORSK)" is a joint research group between Western Norway University of Applied Sciences and Helse Førde. The research group has a new organization from January 2023, when two joint research groups- Research Group for Mental Health and Substance Abuse (PHR)- and- Research Group for Public Health, Lifestyle and Obesity (FLO)) that had a good collaboration over years, merged into a new initiative.
