Community Health Proposal
Nursing 492-Community Health Nursing
Purpose of the Assignment
The purpose of this assignment is to involve students in the comprehensive community needs assessment. Students will develop/utilize tools to identify perceived factors (both negative and positive) that impinge on the population’s health. This information will then be used to develop and implement strategies for health promotion.
Topics have been identified from Healthy People 2020 Objectives.
Presentations should be developed around one objective from the Healthy People 2020 focus areas.
Student Approach to Assignment
This was a group project that required the team members to discuss and choose a topic, related to the Healthy People 2020 objectives, and to agree upon the area or community to be evaluated. Our group chose to develop a community health proposal and a PowerPoint presentation on adult heavy and binge drinking in Virginia Beach to discuss the problem, community, effects, existing programs, and propose treatments or ways to reach the population involved in the community health problem.
