Evidence-Based Methods to Improve Population Health 10.0 % There are no presented evidence-based strategies to improve health for this demographic. Partially provided are evidence-based methods to improve health for this population; other methods are not evidence-based or inappropriate for this population. The explanation of how these strategies reduce health inequality is either lacking or irrelevant to the group being served. There are substantial errors. The summary of evidence-based strategies to improve health for this demographic raises questions about the applicability of certain stated strategies. It is explained in general terms how these methods reduce health disparities. There are a few errors. For support, more data or justification are required. There is discussion about evidence-based methods to improve this population’s health. It is explained how these strategies reduce health disparity. Support requires some kind of argument or supporting data. The discussion of evidence-based strategies to improve the health of this community includes strategies that are accurately portrayed and extremely pertinent to the population. Well-developed justification is provided for how these strategies reduce health inequality. All through, solid justification and supporting evidence are given. An knowledge of the significance of evidence-based strategies in the improvement of health for a population at risk is shown.

: A Proposal ten percent To address the issue for the target group, a recommendation for health education for a family-centered health promotion is left out. Evidence-based practice does not support the concept. To address the issue for the target group, a plan for health education for a family-centered health promotion is offered in part. The target audience is not entirely served by the proposal. The idea calls for additional backing that is pertinent to evidence-based practice. There are substantial errors. To address the issue for the target group, a plan for health education for a family-centered health promotion is made. Although evidence-based practice typically supports it, there are certain inaccuracies or areas that require additional support. The proposal is often pertinent to the intended audience. To address the issue for the target group, a plan for health education for a family-centered health promotion is made. It is relevant to the target group and supported by evidence-based practice.

NRS 429V Week 5 Discussion 1

Mrs. Jones, a widow, is unable to live independently and requires increasing assistance with self-care. Susie, her married daughter with three school-aged children, agrees to let her mother move in with her. Susie is concerned about balancing her career demands and her family’s needs, especially now that her elderly and chronically ill mother will require assistance. She is also unsure how she feels about the role reversal, having to now be the primary caregiver for her mother. How can the nurse, who is caring for this family, help them deal with the changes they are about to go through? How can we apply both the family structural theory and the family developmental theory to this situation? How can health education help this family’s health promotion?

NRS 429V Week 5 Discussion 2

What characteristics would lead a provider to suspect domestic violence, child abuse, or elder abuse is taking place within a family? Discuss your facility’s procedure for reporting these types of abuse.

Domestic violence entails a pattern of abuse that a current or former partner, boyfriend, girlfriend or spouse uses to control the behavior of the other (Toivo, 2016). The abuse can be in the form of financial abuse, domestic violence, neglect, psychological abuse, physical harm or sexual abuse. Any deliberate harm or exploitation of a person under the age of 18 is considered child abuse. It takes various forms, which frequently happen at the same time. It can be emotional, physical, medical or sexual abuse (Adigun & Hatcher, 2019). Elder abuse entails any form of abuse resulting in harm or loss to an old person (Schilling & Zolotor, 2018). For the above cases, there are various signs for healthcare providers to look at, which include injuries or bruises that seem to result from punching, choking, or being thrown down. Also, there may be sprained wrists, red, black eyes or purple marks at the neck, which are common in violent relationships. The victims of domestic violence try to hide bruises with clothing, makeup or sunglasses. They will at times give excuses like falling or being accident-prone. However, the gravity of the harm does not usually relate with their explanation.

To report the above cases, our facility documents the signs by taking note of the victim’s changes in their behavior, taking photos of injuries, describing victim’s injuries, writing statements from the witnesses and writing statements from the victim. The above signs help to either approve or refute a case. If the evidence collected leads the concerned authorities to believe that exploitation may have occurred, it may help in ensuring that such cases are handled quickly by the respective bodies. Depending on the sternness of the abuse, how it is reported and to whom, the identity of the person making the report remains confidential. This makes it easier for experts to report signs of abuse, especially if they are doubtful that it has been committed by a partner.

The text is extremely difficult to read with long blocks of text, small point size for fonts, and inappropriate contrasting colors. Poor use of headings, subheadings, indentations, or bold formatting is evident. The layout shows some structure, but appears cluttered and busy or distracting with large gaps of white space or a distracting background. Overall readability is difficult due to lengthy paragraphs, too many different fonts, dark or busy background, overuse of bold, or lack of appropriate indentations of text. The layout uses horizontal and vertical white space appropriately. Sometimes the fonts are easy to read, but in a few places the use of fonts, italics, bold, long paragraphs, color, or busy background detracts and does not enhance readability. The layout background and text complement each other and enable the content to be easily read. The fonts are easy to read and point size varies appropriately for headings and text.

Health education is the act of a nurse teaching an individual the risks and possible outcomes associated with their illness or condition (Whitehead, 2018). Nurses give the tools and knowledge to the patient to encourage the patient to create behavioral changes. If the patient utilizes the tools given to them, they participate in positive behavioral health changes resulting in active health promotion.

“However, the meaning of this term is debated, particularly in nursing. Some nurses might believe that, because they are healthcare practitioners working in healthcare services, that they are ‘by default’ automatically involved in health promotion activities; however, this is often not the case. Instead, they are more likely to be engaging in health education activities; that is, simply providing individuals with health-related information, rather than seeking to empower individuals, families, groups and communities” (Whitehead, 2018)

 The nursing process allows a structured approach to investigate deficiencies in the patient’s health, diagnose a risk factor/ readiness to learn/change, and create a plan tailored to patients’ beliefs/values/resources to help guide the education and materials appropriate for improved health outcomes. After implementing a plan, the nurse will evaluate if changes were successful and change accordingly.

Today gun violence is the most prevalent contemporary issue facing everyone. I feel that nobody can say this doesn’t affect them somehow. Even other countries are being affected by the violence in the United States right now.

“It is critical to listen regardless of the topic” (MacMillan, 2022). To assist in identifying significant problems affecting patients’ lives and well-being, we must be patient and listen. Let the patient be the life’s teacher; we are the students. Children who express mental health tend to have parents who cause similar mental health problems. When it comes to children who are stressed as a result of recent current events, parents, by nature, hurt for their children through empathy. We created health screenings based on the current issues confronting communities. When covid struck, healthcare increased its emphasis on infection screening. When major societal disruptions occur, such as gun violence, we must increase screening and education on available community resources to promote mental health.

Plans in schools could include small group discussions with school counselors or a phycologist. Information to assist parents in identifying signs or symptoms that their child may be suffering from emotional or mental disturbances. This can also include simple communication strategies that can assist parents in creating an environment in which children can express their feelings and concerns (Gregory, 2022).
