ALL DISCUSION AND ALL WEEK MILESTONE 1 , 2 AND 3

Let’s start with a broad overview of public health nursing. The three core functions of
public health are assessment, assurance, and policy development (Nies & McEwen,
2015, p. 6).


Describe one of these core public health functions.



Discuss how this core function relates to one intervention from the Public
Health Intervention Wheel (Nies & McEwen, 2015, pp. 14–15).

Nies, M. A., & McEwen, M. (2015).Community/public health nursing: Promoting
the health of populations(6th ed.). St. Louis, MO: Saunders/Elsevier.

What makes some healthy and others ill? Healthy People 2020 identifies
fivedeterminants of healththat influence the health of individuals and
populations.Healthy People 2020 describes them as “A range of personal, social,
economic, and environmental factors that influence health status are known as
determinants of health” (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2014,About
Determinants of Health, para. 1). Determinants fall into five categories including: (a)
policy making, (b) social factors, (c) health services, (d) individual behavior, and (e)
biology and genetics.

Windshield Survey (graded)

In this discussion thread, you will view a windshield survey video of a
community called Iron Ridge to practice performing part of a windshield
survey. This will help you when you perform a windshield survey of your
community for your first assignment. Review Box 6-2 on page 98 of your text
(Nies & McEwen, 2015).



Click HERE to view the windshield survey video.
Click HERE to read a transcript of the video.

Next, choose one of the six assessment categories from Box 6-2, and discuss
what you observed about Iron Ridge related to the questions in that category.

Promoting the health of populations (6th ed.). St. Louis, MO:
Saunders/Elsevier.
Demographic and Epidemiological Assessment (graded)For this post, you will
collect assessment data about your city or county. This post will include
information about demographics (general characteristics) and
epidemiological data (disease or health behavior rates) of your community.
This data collection will help with two sections of your Week 4 Milestone 2
assignment.
1.

Demographic data: Go online to the U.S. Census Bureau
at http://quickfacts.census.gov/. Obtain information about the demographic
characteristics of the population for your city or county of residence. You may
have to look at county data if your city is not listed. Collect a range of
demographic data about age, ethnicity, poverty levels, housing, and education.
2.
Epidemiological data: Go to your city or county health department website
(search the Internet) or County Health Rankings
(http://www.countyhealthrankings.org/) to discuss epidemiological data about
your area. Identify several priority health concerns for your area.

Here is a helpful tip sheet about the U.S. Census website that will assist you
in using this website as a resource
week 3
Caring for Vulnerable Populations (graded)

You Can Also Visit: WWW.HWFROFILE.COM

This week, you are learning about many different vulnerable populations. Choose one
vulnerable population.


Briefly describe this vulnerable population.



Discuss several risk factors that may impact health outcomes for this group.



Describe two priorities for community health nurses working with this
population.

Assuring Resources for the Vulnerable (graded)
Review the Week 3 Case Study that may be found in Doc Sharing.
Assurance is one of the three core functions of public health. Find a resource in your
community (other than WIC) that could assist Mary during her pregnancy. Start by
searching the Internet for your local health department’s website. What services do they
provide for pregnant women? What about your local welfare office? Do they provide
prenatal or mental health services? Are there any service organizations, crisis
pregnancy centers, or churches providing help for pregnant women?


Briefly describe the types of services that you found.



Choose one agency and assess this agency in terms of the 4 As. Is it
accessible, acceptable, affordable, or available for Mary or other pregnant
women that you case-manage?



week 4
As the school nurse role evolves, there are increasingly more health concerns for the
school nurse. Does the locale make a difference in the problems, or are health
problems in children and adolescents universal? In some inner-city areas, violence is a
prevalent issue. What do you think are the biggest problems in your areas?
Healthy People Objectives for Community Settings (graded)
The federal government developed Healthy People as a set of national health objectives
that are revised every 10 years. These objectives are very specific in order to guide and
measure our nation’s progress related to public health.
Please visit http://www.healthypeople.gov/2020/topicsobjectives2020/. Click on
a topic area that relates to a community health (CH) setting you are learning about.
Click on the green Objectivesarea in that topic area to choose one Healthy People
2020 numbered objective.


Describe the community health setting of interest (see Chapters 30–33).

You Can Also Visit: WWW.HWFROFILE.COM



Discuss one specific numbered Healthy People 2020 objective (not a goal)
related to this community health setting.



How could a community health nurse help this setting meet this objective?

You will continue in your role as a nurse with your local health department. Examine
your online lesson, assigned readings, and visit The Community Guide
website:http://www.thecommunityguide.org/ to explore interventions related to
violence. Choose one evidence-based intervention, and present this intervention to
the task force.



Summarize this intervention and why it might work in your area.
Describe whether it is considered a primary, secondary, or tertiary prevention
strategy and include your rationale (see Nies & McEwen, 2015, Chapter 1, p. 7
for a review of levels of prevention).

survey.Information about the components of a windshield survey is located in
your textbook, Nies & McEwen (2015) on page 98 (Box 6-2). Drive through
the area and report your observations by describing each of the following six
areas using a majority of the questions from each category of Box 6-2 as
your guide (one to two in depth paragraphs for each category). Be sure to
include what you observed related to each of these categories, and also
include any significant items that are missing in your community because
this may be equally important in identifying a community health problem.
a. Community vitality
b. Indicators of social and economic conditions
c. Health resources
d. Environmental conditions related to health
e. Social functioning
f. Attitude toward healthcare
Note: It is helpful to conduct this assessment at least two different times:

Scenario
You are a community public health nurse (C/PHN) working in your setting of
choice. You have analyzed the data collected from your windshield survey
and assessment and diagnosis assignments (the first two milestones) and
identified one community health nursing problem. You have decided
on one nursing intervention and need your organization’s approval for
funding of this intervention. Your leadership team has agreed to listen to
your proposal.

DIRECTIONS
· Watch the Milestone 3 tutorialby clicking thislink. This tutorial is also
available on Course Project page under Course Home as well as Week 6
Assignments page.
· Choose a community health nurse setting. Some examples of settings are
school nurse, parish nurse, home health nurse, nurse working in the health
department (be specific to what area in the health department, e.g., WIC,
STD clinic, health promotion, maternal-child health, etc.)
· Introduction: Introduce the identified problem, the purpose of the
presentation, and reiterate at least one or two important findings that
demonstrate this problem in your community (average of 1–2 slides)
