Models and Theories in Action

Overview

This assignment gives you an opportunity to examine how a public health organization puts a public health theory or model into action through their efforts to improve public health.

In this assignment, you will:

  • Study how a public health organization is currently working to address a public health issue.
  • Apply the appropriate theory or model to deepen your understanding of how the organization works to improve public health for their constituents.

Evidence-Based Practices in Public Health

Effective public health practice systematically identifies gaps in health and health care and tracks down evidence-based programs to close those gaps.

Arlene Fink, Evidence-Based Public Health Practice.

Overview

Create a 23 page paper discussing evidence-based public health practices related to a specific public health issue. 

Preparation

Select one of the following public health issues and examine evidence-based public health practices:

  • Obesity.

  • School violence.
  • Zika virus.

Complete the following:

  • Discuss the issue:
    • Describe the problems related to this public health issue.
    • Present properly cited evidence to support your description of the issue.
  • Discuss practices and interventions:
    • Which evidence-based practices or interventions does the literature suggest to address the issue?
    • How effective are the interventions?
  • Describe a public health organization or agency that is attempting to address this issue:
    • Which of their interventions have proven effective in reducing the impact of the health issue?
    • What are some controversies that may arise from actions that an agency has taken or may take?
  • Based on the evidence and what you can ascertain about practices currently used by this agency, is there anything that could be changed or improved upon? What would you recommend the agency focus on?

Additional Requirements

  • Page count: 23 pages plus cover and reference pages.
  • Font: Times New Roman, 12 points.
  • APA Formatting: Resources and citations are formatted according to APA style and formatting.

1. The United Nations Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) was developed to promote the sound management of chemicals. This is an agreed upon management approach, but regulatory authorities in countries adopting the GHS will implement the system according to their own regulatory processes. After reflecting on the aspects of chemical management that the GHS system covers, describe how you believe the GHS system will affect you or others in your field as your perform your various job functions.

Your journal entry must be at least 200 words. No references or citations are necessary.

4. While much of the chemistry you will be learning about in this class has not changed during the last 20 or more years (with the exception of some added elements), there is new chemical research and news happening all around you.

 Reflect on a case from your past clinical experiences and consider how a patients pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes may alter his or her response to a drug.

To Prepare

Review the Resources for this module and consider the principles of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.

Reflect on your experiences, observations, and/or clinical practices from the last 5 years and think about how pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic factors altered his or her anticipated response to a drug.

Consider factors that might have influenced the patients pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes, such as genetics (including pharmacogenetics), gender, ethnicity, age, behavior, and/or possible pathophysiological changes due to disease.

Think about a personalized plan of care based on these influencing factors and patient history in your case study.

Discussion

Post a description of the patient case from your experiences, observations, and/or clinical practice from the last 5 years. Then, describe factors that might have influenced pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes of the patient you identified. Finally, explain details of the personalized plan of care that you would develop based on influencing factors and patient history in your case. Be specific and provide examples.

Supported by at least three current, credible sources. fully adheres to current APA manual writing rules and style. 1-2 pages

Directions:

  • Print out and cut out the attached element cards so that they can be arranged and organized.
  • Read through each of the element cards you are given. Look for similarities between the elements and create groups that have the most similarities.
  • Within each group, try and arrange the elements in a logical way.
  • Show your arrangement of all 12 elements by drawing a table and writing the letter of each element in the cells of the table. (create a column for each of the groups you sorted them into)

Questions:

1. What similar properties did you use to form each group?

2. Within each group, how did you decide to organize the elements?

3. Based on what you have seen about periodic properties, predict the properties for the element that would be in the same group as element T but with higher mass (i.e. it would sit below element T on the periodic table).
