COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT and ANALYSIS SURVEY

 

 

In population health nursing, nurses promote the health of population. Nurses and other members of the health team assess community needs and resources as a Work basis for planning, health promotion, and disease/injury prevention programs for aggregates within the population. This community assessment helps build the knowledge and skills needed to plan, implement, and evaluate a population health intervention (for this course teaching).

Evidence from the survey and analysis will establish an aggregate diagnosis of a teaching/learning need. A literature review of previous programs/interventions Work will be completed to guide the proposed teaching learning intervention.

 

The student is required to read Chapters: 11, 12, & 15 in:

Rector, C. (2022). Community & public health nursing:    Promoting the public’s health (10th ed.).  Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.  Make sure you use Table 15.1, 15.2, & 15.3 to help you understand what data you are responsible for gathering during your community profile survey.  Table 15.3 talks about a windshield survey.

 

The survey is not to be written in a formal style, but proper grammar, spelling, sentence structure, and punctuation is required.  The Community Assessment Survey is a Word document, so you can download and complete the document. Please use this document only.  Work

 

However, the literature review at the end of the document will be summarized in paragraph form utilizing APA (7th ed.) format for the text and references. You must include three scholarly- peer reviewed journal articles (dated within the last 5 years).  See Module on APA Work information on How to Write a Lit Review. List references on a separate page in APA format.

Community Assessment & Analysis Survey

 

  1. Define the vulnerable population (aggregate) you have chosen (Do Not identify name of the agency):

 

  1. Location, population served, an organizational outline, private or

volunteer? Where does funding come from (federal/state, foundations/

grants/private).  What is the role of the nurse & his/her credentials?

 

  1. Interview key informants (minimum of at least the 3 listed): preceptor,

administrator, a patient etc. and ask their perception of needs.  List what

each informant prioritizes.

 

 

  1. Identify characteristics of the vulnerable population (aggregate) you are working with See tables in the textbook (chapter 15) to help with this:

 

  1. Demographics:

 

  1. age-range

 

  1. gender

 

  1. race

 

  1. culture and religion

 

  1.          socioeconomic status (rate of unemployment, education level, and

income level)

 

III.      Healthcare Planning:

 

  1. What types of primary (e.g. health promotion and education), secondary (e.g. early diagnosis and treatment), and tertiary (rehabilitation) levels of prevention are available to the vulnerable population? (Develop a levels of prevention pyramid using the format from the example found on Box 15-6 page 440).

 

  1. Summarize what you saw that would influence health care needs of the vulnerable population. (Review the Windshield survey- page. 432, Box 15-3 (Rector, 2022 and in CoursePoint+ under Real-World Experiences Module 1: Windshield Survey-A Community Assessment Strategy.

 

 

 

 

 

  1. Analysis:

 

  1. Identify three strengths & three weaknesses of vulnerable population related to healthcare needs based on the data collected.

 

 

  1. Prioritize one need: Make a community/vulnerable population diagnosis-

See pages 438-439 (Rector, 2022)

 

  1. Set a goal for the vulnerable population. (Correlate it with Healthy People

2030).

 

  1. List three objectives of the desired outcomes for meeting the goal for the

vulnerable population.

 

 

  1. Literature Review, total 3 articles:

 

Summarize two scholarly-peer reviewed journal articles that relate to the

diagnosis-teaching need that was identified in the analysis survey of your

population.

Summarize one scholarly peer-reviewed journal article addressing the

levels of prevention in healthcare. See what other scholars have found in research

and practice in programs/interventions to address this need/problem. There should

be no more than one page per article summary.  APA format for text and   

            references will be required.   List references on separate page.

Assignment: Assessing and Treating Pediatric Patients with Mood Disorders

When pediatric patients present with mood disorders, the process of assessing, diagnosing, and treating them can be quite complex. Children not only present with different signs and symptoms than adult patients with the same disorders, but they `wq`also metabolize medications much differently. Yet, there may be times when the same psychopharmacologic treatments may be used in both pediatric and adult cases with major depressive disorders. As a result, psychiatric nurse practitioners must exercise caution when prescribing psychotropic medications to these patients. For this Assignment, as you examine the patient case study in this week’s Learning Resources, consider how you might assess and treat pediatric patients presenting with mood disorders. Work

 

To prepare for this Assignment:

Review this week’s Learning Resources, including the Medication Resources indicated for this week.

Reflect on the psychopharmacologic treatments you might recommend for the assessment and treatment of pediatric patients requiring antidepressant therapy.

The Assignment: 5 pages

Examine Case Study: An African American Child Suffering from Depression. You will be asked to make three decisions concerning the medication to prescribe to this patient. Be sure to consider factors that might impact the patient’s pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes. Work

 

At each decision point, you should evaluate all options before selecting your decision and moving throughout the exercise. Before you make your decision, make sure that you have researched each option and that you evaluate the decision that you will select. Be sure to research each option using the primary literature.

Briefly explain and summarize the case for this Assignment. Be sure to include the specific patient factors that may impact your decision making when prescribing medication for this patient.

Decision #1 (1 page)

 

Which decision did you select?

Why did you select this decision? Be specific and support your response with clinically relevant and patient-specific resources, including the primary literature.

Why did you not select the other two options provided in the exercise? Be specific and support your response with clinically relevant and patient-specific resources, including the primary literature.

What were you hoping to achieve by making this decision? Support your response with evidence and references to the Learning Resources (including the primary literature).Work

Explain how ethical considerations may impact your treatment plan and communication with patients. Be specific and provide examples.
