COMPETENCIES

738.7.1 : Distinguish Foundations in Population Health and the Nurse’s Role

The learner distinguishes between global, public, and population health for improved health outcomes.

738.7.2 : Identify Social Determinants of Health

The learner identifies social determinants of health (SDOH) and interventions for equitable healthcare improvements.

738.7.3 : Identify Epidemiological Data Sources

The learner identifies epidemiological data sources that inform population health interventions.

738.7.4 : Identify Global Health Trends

The learner identifies the effect of global health trends on healthcare capacity that inform service modification decisions in healthcare.

738.7.5 : Evaluate Population Health Interventions

The learner evaluates population health solutions for environmental health effects.

INTRODUCTION

Your 55 hours of field experience will expose you to population needs and health trends. This frontline exposure will allow you to identify a subpopulation affected by social determinants of health (SDOH). During the indirect portion of your field experience, you will perform a virtual assessment

In this task, you will collect and review data from the windshield survey within the D224 course or from online sources (e.g., citydata.com, hospital community assessments, department of public health sites) to identify an at-risk subpopulation within your local town, county, or city and a social determinant of health (SDOH) concern. (Web links to some of these data sources have been attached in the Web Links section.)

You will then provide a written report outlining assessment findings, identified SDOH, and proposed evidence-based interventions to address the SDOH.

REQUIREMENTS

Your submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly. The similarity report that is provided when you submit your task can be used as a guide. You must use the rubric to direct the creation of your submission because it provides detailed criteria that will be used to evaluate your work. Each requirement below may be evaluated by more than one rubric aspect. The rubric aspect titles may contain hyperlinks to relevant portions of the course.Tasks may not be submitted as cloud links, such as links to Google Docs, Google Slides, OneDrive, etc., unless specified in the task requirements. All other submissions must be file types that are uploaded and submitted as attachments (e.g., .docx, .pdf, .ppt).

A.  Describe a local town, city, or county and a subpopulation at risk within that area based on your review of data, and support your description with two credible sources. Your description should include the following information:

•  the size of the community and the specific subpopulation

•  gender

•  age

•  race

•  income

•  educational level

•  percentage living in poverty

•  crime rates

•  occupations

•  access to healthcare, transportation, and food sources

•  health and nutrition rates

1.  Describe environmental concerns (e.g., water quality, air quality, sanitation, superfund sites, hazardous waste, environmental toxins, natural disasters, vulnerability to heat/cold) relevant to the subpopulation.

2.  Discuss how the demographics (i.e., race, gender, ethnicity, age) of the identified subpopulation compare with the larger community population, and discuss how data supports the health concern for this subpopulation.

B.  Identify one social determinant of health (SDOH) affecting the subpopulation described in part A.

1.  Explain how this SDOH is affecting the subpopulation described in part A. Your explanation should address the following questions and be supported with local, state, or national data:

•  What is the biggest contributor to disease (morbidity) and premature death (mortality) in the community?

•  What are the controversial community health concerns discussed in a local newspaper or a local online resource (e.g., online newspaper or blog, hospital website, county health department site)?

•  What do you believe people in the community are most concerned about related to health?

•  What is generating the most visits to the emergency room or hospital admissions in the community?

•  Based on the collected data, what do you believe is reducing the quality of life in the community?

C.  Describe two resources currently available to the subpopulation that address the SDOH in part B.

D.  Describe two resources that are needed to address the SDOH for the subpopulation described in part A.

1.  Explain why each resource from part D is needed.

E.  Discuss an evidence-based intervention to address the gap between the available healthcare resources and the resources needed to address the SDOH. Include one scholarly, evidence-based source published within the last five years to support the discussion.

1.  Explain how this evidence-based intervention will decrease the resource gap, including one specific example.

Note: This intervention could include policy development, resource development, population education, etc.

F.  Acknowledge sources, using in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.

G.  Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission.We
