Consider the two individuals from the week’s introduction: Claudia and Wayne. Both are at risk of cancer, yet both most likely differ in terms of their genetics and behaviors that might contribute to their likelihood of contracting cancer. Would the same communication efforts be successful with both of them, or would health administrators and health educators need to consider individual and population factors when developing campaigns to foster their participation in cancer prevention and treatment? Now that you have examined inherent and behavioral risk factors, it is time to consider how to persuade individuals in populations to participate in the all-important screening and diagnostic testing to detect cancer, as well as to seek treatment if they are, in fact, diagnosed with cancer. To this end, for this Assignment, you will be creating an influential communications tool related to preventing skin cancer. To Prepare: Identify and review articles on skin cancer causes and prevention strategies. Consider these articles and their findings from the perspective of communication strategies to encourage screening and diagnostic testing for skin cancer. Identify an evidence-based practice related to preventing and managing skin cancer. Consider state, local, or other policy or regulations related to prevention of cancer, and how these regulations might affect the role of a health promotion director. Assignment: Imagine that you are the Health Promotion Director for a local hospital. You have developed a new program for skin cancer screening. You want to spread the word about the program and encourage people in your community to participate in your screening program. You are tasked with developing a fact sheet regarding your screening program. The Assignment: For this Assignment, you will develop a 1-page Fact Sheet that will: Describe your skin cancer screening and prevention program Identify the target audience for your skin cancer screening and prevention program Provide statistics on the prevalence and incidence of skin cancer in your community Describe any cost to the patient in participating in your skin cancer screening and prevention program Detail payment options if there is a fee for participating in your skin cancer screening and prevention program Make sure to follow the American Psychological Association (APA) Style and guidelines before submitting your Assignment.

Write a 4-6 page evidence-based patient-centered care report on the patient scenario presented in the Evidence-Based Health Evaluation and Application media piece. Base your report on the information provided by the traumatic brain injury expert from the population health improvement initiative (PHII) described in the media activity and your own evidence-based research on this population health issue. In this assessment, you will apply evidence-based practice in patient-centered care and population health improvement contexts. You will be challenged to think critically, evaluate what the evidence suggests is an appropriate approach for a personalized patient care plan, and determine which aspects of the approach could be applied to similar situations and patients. Demonstration of Proficiency By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria: Competency 1: Apply evidence-based practice to plan patient-centered care. Evaluate the outcomes of a population health improvement initiative. Develop a personalized patient care plan that incorporates lessons learned from a population health improvement initiative. Competency 2: Apply evidence-based practice to design interventions to improve population health. Propose a strategy for improving the outcomes of a population health improvement initiative, or for ensuring that all outcomes are being addressed, based on the best available evidence. Competency 3: Evaluate outcomes of evidence-based interventions. Propose an evaluation strategy for the outcomes of personalized patient care plan and determine what aspects of the approach could be applied to similar situations and patients. Competency 4: Evaluate the value and relative weight of available evidence upon which to make a clinical decision. Identify the level of evidence and describe the value and relevance it brings to personalized care for your patient. Competency 5: Synthesize evidence-based practice and academic research to communicate effective solutions. Write clearly and logically, with correct grammar and mechanics. Integrate relevant and credible sources of evidence to support assertions, correctly formatting citations and references using APA style. Scenario The charge nurse in your clinic has contacted you to assume primary care for a patient and develop a plan for follow-up care. The plan should be personalized for him based on evidence-based research provided by a community expert as well as your own research on the condition. You will also be challenged to determine which aspects of the traumatic brain injury (TBI) approach could be applied to similar situations and patients. Your Role You are a nurse who has been requested to provide primary patient care, including a follow-up care plan. You will revisit the interview with the community TBI expert and prepare a personalized health plan for the patient. Instructions Review the Assessment Case Study: Traumatic Brain Injury Care Report media activity.

Describe the outcomes that were not achieved, the extent to which they fell short of expectations and any variance across demographic groups. Identify the factors (for example: institutional, community, environmental, resources, communication) that may have contributed to any achievement shortfalls. Propose a strategy for improving the outcomes of the PHII for traumatic head injuries. Describe the corrective measures you would take in the PHII to address the factors that may have contributed to achievement shortfalls. Cite the evidence (from similar projects, research, or professional organization resources) that supports the corrective measures you are proposing. Explain how the evidence illustrates the likelihood of improved outcomes if your proposed strategy is enacted. Develop a personalized patient care plan for the patient from the scenario that incorporates lessons learned from the PHII outcomes.
