Research a selected local, national, or global nonprofit organization or government agency to determine how it contributes to public health and safety improvements, promotes equal opportunity, and improves the quality of life within the community. Submit your findings in a 35 page report. Collapse All Introduction Many organizations work to better local and global communities’ quality of life and promote health and safety in times of crisis. As public health and safety advocates, nurses must be cognizant of how such organizations help certain populations. As change agents, nurses must be aware of factors that impact the organization and the services that it offers. Familiarity with these organizations enables the nurse to offer assistance as a volunteer and source of referral. This assessment provides an opportunity for you gain insight into the mission, vision, and operations of a community or public health resources organization from the list provided. Preparation As you begin to prepare this assessment, it would be an excellent choice to complete the Nonprofit Organizations and Community Health activity to gain insight into promoting equal opportunity and improving the quality of life in a community.

Create a slide presentation of the health promotion plan you developed in Assessment 1.

Introduction

Health education is any combination of learning experiences designed to help people in a community improve their health by increasing their knowledge or influencing their attitudes (WHO, n.d.). Education is key to health promotion, disease prevention, and disaster preparedness. The health indicator framework identified in Healthy People 2030 prompts action in health services accessibility, clinical preventive services, environmental quality, injury or violence prevention, maternal, infant, and child health, mental health, nutrition, substance abuse prevention, and tobacco use cessation or prevention.

Nurses provide accurate evidence-based information and education in formal and informal settings. They draw upon evidence-based practice to provide health promotion and disease prevention activities to create social and physical environments that are conducive to improving and maintaining community health. When provided with the tools to be successful, people demonstrate lifestyle changes (self-care) that promote health and help reduce readmissions. They are better able to tolerate stressors, including environmental changes, and enjoy a better quality of life. Also, in times of crisis, a resilient community is a safer community (Flanders, 2018; Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, n.d.).

This assessment provides an opportunity for you to apply teaching and learning concepts to a hypothetical presentation of a health promotion plan.

Note: This is the second part of a two-part assessment. You must successfully complete Assessment 1 before completing this assessment.

Scenario

In this assessment, you will develop your presentation of the health promotion plan based on the research you conducted for Assessment 1. You will plan the presentation for the community you focused on for Assessment 1.

You will resume the role of a community nurse tasked with addressing the specific health concern in your community. This time, you will present, via educational outreach, your health promotion plan you completed research for in Assessment 1 to your chosen community. In this presentation, you will simulate the presentation as though it would be live and face-to-face. You must determine an effective teaching strategy, communicate the plan with professionalism and cultural sensitivity, and evaluate the objectives of the plan. Please remember the nursing process. You must evaluate and revise the plan, as applicable, and propose improvement for future educational sessions. To engage your audience, you need to include any handouts with your presentation and a voice-over recording and speaker notes to communicate your plan.

Instructions

Complete the following:

• Prepare a 1214 slide PowerPoint presentation with a voice-over and detailed speaker notes that reflects your presentation. This presentation is the implementation of the plan you created in Assessment 1. The speaker notes should be well-organized and submitted as a separate Word document. Be sure to include a transcript of the voice-over (please refer to the PowerPoint resources in the Academic Resources). The transcript must be submitted on a separate Word document.
• Simulate the face-to-face educational session, addressing the health concern and health goals of your selected community individual or group.
• Imagine collaborating with the participants in setting goals for the session, evaluating session outcomes, and suggesting possible revisions to improve future sessions.

The requirements outlined below correspond to the grading criteria in the scoring guide, so be sure to address each point. Read the performance-level descriptions for each criterion in the scoring guide to see how your work will be assessed.

• Present a health promotion plan tailored for an individual or group within a community.
