Creating educational interventions to help improve the overall health of a target population (Low Income Urbanite) is an essential skill for public health and health education professionals. Intervening in peoples’ lives to positively impact their health and well-being can also be rewarding. However, it is essential that the creation of educational interventions is done using the appropriate tools and skills and that you carefully select and apply theories and models to attain the best results possible.Using the Theory of Reasoned Action/Planned Behavior, design an educational plan to counter a trend within your assigned target population related to your selected topic. Within your educational plan, be sure to respond to the following: List the beliefs of the target regarding the topic. List the evaluations of those beliefs (identify list as important/not important). What are the beliefs of the target population (subjective norm)? Are the targets capable and confident to complete behavior (Perceived Behavioral Control)?

Mental Health NursingClinical AssignmentCase StudyTom is 17-year-old young man who has been described as a troubled child since the age of seven or eight. He has a long history of fighting with other students, biting his classmates, and stealing from his peers, parents, and siblings. Tom has been caught shoplifting and was prosecuted on two occasions, one of which resulted in his father paying a large fine and the other resulted in six months of probation.Tom has held a couple of low-paying jobs but was terminated due to aggressive behavior and suspicion of stealing. He consistently denies any wrongdoing, making excuses for his actions, and blames others for his failure. When confronted about his behavior, Tom fails to show remorse for having broken the law and physically or emotionally hurting others.Most recently, Tom was caught breaking and entering an apartment building.

Course ReflectionA poem by T.S. Eliot (1943) says, “We had the experience but missed the meaning.” As your experience in this course comes to a close, I don’t want you to miss the meaning of the materials you have read, papers you have written, and discussions we have had throughout the session. They are more than a series of assignments and grades—the end result should be an improvement in your higher-order thinking and your ability to make connections between thoughts and ideas. You can achieve that through reflection, the art of taking charge of your own mind.Reflection is a mental process that challenges you to use critical thinking to examine the course information, analyze it carefully, make connections with previous knowledge and experience, and draw conclusions based on the resulting ideas. A well-cultivated critical thinker (Paul & Elder, 2008):raises vital questions and problems, formulating them clearly and precisely;gathers and assesses relevant information, using abstract ideas to interpret it effectively;comes to well-reasoned conclusions and solutions, testing them against relevant criteria and standards;thinks open-mindedly within alternative systems of thought, recognizing and assessing, as need be, their assumptions, implications, and practical consequences; andcommunicates effectively with others in figuring out solutions to complex problems.For this discussion, take some time to reflect upon two concepts that you learned in this course. What are the concepts? ( Health Policies, and affordable healthcare). What insight or ideas did you gain from learning each of these concepts? Were there aspects of the concepts that you would challenge? What is the importance of these concepts to health administration? How will you use this new wisdom in your current or future career?In order to earn maximum credit, the comment should be more than your opinion, and more than a quick “off the top of your head” response. Be sure to support your statements, cite sources properly, cite within the text of your comments, and list your reference(s). The response must be a minimum of 250 words.
