Create an 8-12 slide PowerPoint presentation for one or more stakeholder or leadership groups to generate interest and buy-in for the plan proposal you developed for the final assessment.

Knowing who to include in your project plan presentation is important. Is your plan focused on an organization, a patient population, or a community? The purpose of the project will guide identification of the population. Who are the stakeholders? Are they patients? Health and human services providers, government officials, influencers, workers whose jobs are impacted by the proposed plan? Community activists? Or affected local businesses? (Harris et al., 2023). These are all important considerations as you plan your presentation for stakeholders.

You are encouraged to complete the Evidence-Based Practice: Basics and Guidelines activity before you develop the presentation. This activity consists of six questions that will check your understanding of the fundamentals of evidence-based practice as well as ways to identify EBP in practice. The information gained from completing this activity will help promote success in the Stakeholder Presentation assessment and demonstrate courseroom engagementit requires just a few minutes of your time and is not graded.

This two-part assessment focuses on developing and presenting an interdisciplinary plan proposal to address an organizational or patient care issue. You will first create a comprehensive plan using a structured template, then develop a professional PowerPoint presentation designed to generate stakeholder buy-in and support for your proposal.

Leadership and collaboration are critical aspects of nursing practice. This assessment provides an opportunity to demonstrate effective leadership skills and interprofessional collaboration by creating an evidence-based plan that could drive meaningful change in a healthcare setting. You will think critically about project implementation, resource management, and evaluation strategiesessential components of successful healthcare improvement initiatives.

Your presentation will serve as an educational and persuasive tool that stakeholders can use to expand on your ideas, drive organizational change, and improve processes related to interprofessional collaboration. While you will not execute the project, carefully examining implementation and evaluation strategies will develop the critical thinking skills required for leading healthcare improvement efforts.

Your presentation should be tailored for stakeholders at a specific healthcare organization, with language and messaging appropriate for leaders and decision-makers who will evaluate and potentially approve your proposal.

What Makes a Healthcare System Good? There are different answers to the question of what makes a healthcare system good. It likely depends upon one’s point of view. However, the World Health Organization (WHO), one of the major organizations in the world has established a well-accepted list of six major areas, so lets begin here. U. S. Health Care System All health care systems have six major building blocks or components that ideally function as described by the WHO (2007): Good health services are those that deliver effective, safe, quality personal and non-personal health interventions to those who need them, when and where needed, with minimum waste of resources. A well-performing health workforce is one that works in ways that are responsive, fair, and efficient to achieve the best health outcomes possible, give, available resources and circumstances, (i.e., there are sufficient staff, fairly distributed: they are competent, responsive, and productive). A well-functioning health system ensures equitable access to essential medical products, vaccines, and technologies of assured quality, safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness, and their scientifically sound and cost-effective use. Leadership and governance involve ensuring strategic policy frameworks exist and are combined with effective oversight, coalition-building, regulation, attention to system design, and accountability. A good healthy financing system raises adequate funds for health in ways that ensure people can use needed services and are p protected from financial catastrophe or impoverishment associated with having to pay for them. It provides incentives for provers and users to be efficient. A well-functioning health information system is one that ensures the production, analysis, dissemination, and use of reliable and timely information on health determinants, health system performance, and health status. Determine if the U.S. healthcare system contains the six needed building blocks for the provision of care. Include the following aspects in the assignment: This is an informal 1-2 page paper, be sure to address each bullet For this assignment, you are a healthcare consumer and likely have a history, either your own or family and friends. Consider each of the 6 building blocks for effective healthcare systems: deliver effective, safe care workforce that is responsive, fair, and efficient equitable access to all aspects of the system effective leadership and governance adequate funds for healthcare for all effective use of reliable and timely information Describe your experiences with U.S. healthcare in each of the 6 areas. What was good and wasnt. How would you improve what wasnt? Cite any references. Proper grammar, sentence structure, and spelling are required. Use your own words. Copying and pasting are not allowed.

Assessment Description

Using the feedback you received from the peer reviewer and instructor regarding your first draft, revise your final paper accordingly.

In addition to the areas you have already addressed in your paper, reflect on the following items:

• What obstacles and strategies exist that would prevent you from integrating your research into professional practice?
• How can health care research promote continuous improvement in health care organizations?

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

watch the video and discuss why this activity matters, how it may help you solve healthcare problems using technology, and respond to at least one of your classmates.

The Project Description is often the bulkiest part of the grant proposal and requires a great deal of thought, planning, and purposeful writing. The Project Description outlines the major steps you want to accomplish for your project, and make up the key components of the project, showing the flow of activity from beginning to end. The first step is to write a goal with a series of objectives to solve the problem you identified in the Statement of Need. A goal is a broad and timeless statement about the long-term expectation as a result of your program. An example of a goal statement: to improve the quality of life for mothers and infants in the Washington, DC area. Objectives describe the results to be achieved; measurable steps that contribute to the goal. When developing objectives, they need to be chronologically ordered and specific. Objectives should be SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and time-bound) and represent acombination of behavioral, performance, process and product objectives are recommended. An example of an objective that would align with the goal above: to decrease the maternal mortality rate among African-American mothers in Washington, DC by 20% within 5 years. As a general rule of thumb, there are usually three objectives for each goal. In addition to developing objectives, each objective should have multiple strategies and each strategy, multiple activities. This is why it is important to focus on one problem/need. A timeline is also included as a roadmap for when each activity will be accomplished. It is important to give thought to the sequencing of activities so that the program is realistic and achievable. I suggest creating no more than one or two goals for this proposal. Instructions For the project description, create no more than one or two goals, followed by 3-5 objectives in total that are measurable. Then based on the project goal and objectives, you need to identify and explain the activities to implement your organizations solution based on your strategies. Be sure your activity description is comprehensive. For example, if you plan to hire new staff, think through all the issues to get this process done [e.g. advertisement, interviews, background checks, references check, etc…] and the time it would take to complete the hiring process. Focus your thoughts. The textbook provides a very good example. Include a timeline table in your project description. You can use a Gantt Chart or similar table illustrated in the textbook. It serves as a valuable planning function. Length of the assignment: This section will be the longest part of your grant proposal. A title page and reference page should also be included. Format of Assignment: Use current APA style. Number of Citations: Use at least 1 supplementary source. Acceptable Sources: Use current data and references published within the last 5 years.

Your paper must be submitted as a 2- to 3-page Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, one-inch margins, and at least three sources cited in APA format.

For this assignment, you will create a problem or framework for your chosen topic/challenge for

Week 1 Reflection: Community and Global Health Perspectives

Topic 1

• Reflect on your perspective of community and global health.
• Provide an example of how you have interacted with community health initiatives.
• Explain why this form of nursing is vital to promoting health and preventing disease.

Submission details

• Write a brief 300-400 word reflection on your beliefs and insights about the selected topic. Feel free to share openly without concern about getting a grade expressing your personal thoughts or feelings in your writing. Your reflective journal must reflect your personal nursing practice experience.

Initial DP(Me): Whenever I consider community health, I do not think about it as something I was forced to take in nursing school; I think about it as the beginning of it all. My perception of health before nursing was that of individual responsibility. Today, I understand that the health of a person cannot be separated with the environment he/she lives in, what food he/she gets, and what are his/her social support systems. Equity in action to me means community health nursing.

Among the experiences that appeared to have the greatest influence on me was a mobile flu vaccination clinic that was arranged among a low-served migrant farming community. We went to the patients, unlike the hospital setting, where patients come to us; we organized ourselves in a parking lot of a community center on a Saturday morning. Most of the people that we served lacked primary care providers and health insurance. They had hard labor jobs and their living conditions were congested, which made them extremely susceptible to breathing diseases. I recall a similar older man who was reluctant to take the vaccine as he was afraid of becoming too ill to work. We did not simply give him a consent form, but instead, we sat and listened to his anxieties and spoke to him in straight and respectful words as to how the vaccine protects the lungs. He later consented and I remained grateful.

This had strengthened my understanding of the importance of community health nursing. The outbreaks of chronic diseases cannot be treated unless they are prevented on the population level. Community health nurses are intermediaries who connect the vulnerable populations and the broken healthcare system. We are not only treating the virus, but also the isolation, the fear, and the misinformation. In this type of nursing, we are needed to leave sterile settings and go to the people where they are, both physically and metaphorically. It is grassroots advocacy and it is where nursing can be a social justice force.

Student Response #1Liliana Palmero Serrano posted Feb 12, 2026 8:05 PM

Community and global health, for me, are not just academic concepts. They represent the heart of why I chose nursing. Growing up in Cuba and now beginning my nursing career in Texas, I have seen two very different healthcare systems, yet both have shown me how deeply health is connected to community. In Cuba, prevention and neighborhood-based care were central. Here in the United States, I see advanced technology and specialized care, but I also see gaps in access and health equity. These experiences have shaped my belief that community health is about connection, prevention, and justice.

One example of interacting with community health initiatives happened during my clinical training when we participated in a local health screening event. We provided blood pressure and glucose checks for individuals who did not regularly visit healthcare providers. What impacted me most was not the screenings themselves, but the conversations. Many people shared concerns about medication costs, lack of insurance, or fear of seeking care. I realized that community health nursing is not just about identifying numbers outside of normal range; it is about listening, educating, and guiding people toward available resources.

This form of nursing is vital because it focuses on prevention instead of reaction. So many chronic illnesses, such as hypertension and diabetes, can be better managed or even prevented with early education and consistent follow-up. When nurses step into communities, we help reduce hospital admissions and improve quality of life. Community health also strengthens trust between healthcare professionals and the populations we serve. Without trust, even the best medical interventions may fail.

As I prepare to begin practicing as a nurse, I understand that my role goes beyond bedside care. I want to be a professional who not only treats illness but also promotes long-term wellness. Community and global health perspectives remind me that every patient is part of a larger system influenced by culture, family, environment, and access to care. Recognizing that bigger picture makes me more aware, more compassionate, and more committed to growing as a nurse.

Student Response #2 Courtney Tucker posted Feb 12, 2026 7:28 PM

When I think about community and global health, Im reminded that nursing stretches far beyond the walls of a hospital or clinic. Community health has always felt like the heartbeat of prevention, meeting people where they are, understanding their day-to-day struggles, and helping them stay healthy before they ever need a hospital bed. My perspective has grown over the years, especially as Ive watched how closely local health issues connect to larger global patterns.

One example that always comes to mind is a community blood pressure screening event I helped with at a neighborhood church. It was a simple setup, tables, cuffs, and a few educational flyers, but the impact was much bigger than I realized at the time. Many people who stopped by shared that they hadnt seen a primary care provider in years. A few had blood pressure readings high enough that we gently encouraged them to seek immediate follow-up. What stayed with me most was how grateful they were for something so basic. It reminded me that community health doesnt have to be complicated to make a difference.

This kind of nursing is vital because it catches problems early, especially for people who might not otherwise access care. It gives us a chance to educate, prevent, and build trust. So many of the chronic conditions we see, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, could be managed more effectively with consistent community-based support. Global health works the same way, just on a larger scale: patterns of disease, access, and inequity dont stop at borders, and neither should our awareness.

Looking at the bigger picture, Ive realized that strong community health systems contribute to healthier families and ultimately healthier populations. As nurses, we have a unique role in bridging those gaps and translating health information in a way that actually fits into peoples lives. Even small interactions, like that church screening, remind me why prevention and community outreach matter so much in the long run.

Interesting reflection Steven

Do you think that communities such as the one you described suffer greater health disparities due to lack of knowledge that we, as nurses, could address? What isn’t that happening?
