Civil Disobedience

 Civil Disobedience

Civil disobedience – as we’ve defined it – as four components:

1. It must be public.

2. It must be nonviolent.

3. It must be political.

4. It must be contrary to law.

Is this a good definition of civil disobedience? What does it include or leave out?

Women and Ethnic Individuals in Politics

Women and Ethnic Individuals in Politics

you will need to watch two different documentaries; Race 2012 and Miss-Representation. Using Race 2012 and Miss-Representation, write about some of the pitfalls that women and ethnic individuals might face in the world of politics. In your opinion, is the system set up for these individuals to even pursue politics? Mention the concept of “Whitetopia”. How is “whiteness” defended in the media? How might women be unfairly portrayed against their male counterparts when running for office? For full credit, you MUST actually WATCH both documentaries and report on them. Your opinion is fine, but it must be underscored by evidence that you WATCHED both documentaries.

Community Health Needs Assessment

Community Health Needs Assessment

  • INTRODUCTION

    Each of us belongs to multiple populations: our neighborhood community, workplace, family, and so on. In the workplace, employers recognize the positive benefits of a healthy lifestyle such as reduced absenteeism, improved productivity, and fewer health insurance claims. In the community, health care organizations, community health centers, health districts, and other key stakeholders promote wellness and a healthy lifestyle in hopes to improve the overall health of the community. Reducing obesity, the harmful effects of smoking, drug, and alcohol use, or the transmission of HIV may be the focus of community-wide health initiatives. Overall improvements in health status across a given population are an important goal of politicians, legislators, employers, and community leaders.The Affordable Care Act (ACA) has emphasized the importance of these initiatives, and health care leaders are tasked with building cultures of health and wellness for their communities (Nash, Fabius, Skoufalos, & Clarke, 2016). Population health initiatives have been widely impacted since the passage of the law as new programs are introduced to achieve the key objectives. These programs have evolved from a focus on a single illness to more robust, comprehensive interventions that seek to improve the overall health of the population (Nash, Fabius, Skoufalos, & Clarke, 2016). Collaborative efforts between health care providers, politicians, and community organizations are beginning to form as stakeholders recognize the wide variety of services necessary to treat an entire population (Nash, Fabius, Skoufalos, & Clarke, 2016).At the highest level, the United States Congress and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) establish health care policy while individual health care workers are tasked with implementation at the lowest level. As of this writing, the Trump administration is making efforts to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. Although the new administration indicates that it has many of the same goals and objectives of improving population health as the previous administration, the far-reaching effects and final policies remain unknown.An important concept in community and population health is epidemiology, which is defined as the study of the distribution and determinants (causes and risk factors) of health-related states and events in specified populations (CDC, 2017). It is a method used to find the causes of health outcomes and diseases in populations (CDC, 2017). Public health announcements, such as news of flu outbreaks, are based on epidemiology studies. Epidemiology is an important part of public health, as it helps to identify specific risk factors for diseases to improve preventative healthcare outcomes. Epidemiology is data driven and quantitative in design (CDC, 2017). It relies on sound research, as it tests hypotheses grounded in biology, behavioral sciences, and physics (CDC, 2017). Epidemiological studies can cover a wide variety of public health concerns including smoking, obesity, maternal health, HIV, influenza, vaccine use, and outcomes.

    Note: It is recommended that you complete the assessments in this course in the order they are presented.

    PREPARATION

    For this assessment, you will be discussing high-priority health improvement needs in a community of your choice. These needs could relate to any number of areas related to the health of populations in the community. Some examples for potential areas include nutrition, smoking, diabetes management, drug use, or other concerns.To prepare for this assessment, it is recommended you complete the following:

    • Use the Internet to locate a health needs assessment for your local community and explore websites with a .gov, .org, or .edu extension. You may find multiple community needs assessments depending on where you live.
      • Feel free to download several reports and compare them; you may find it interesting to review both similarities and inconsistencies among the reports.
    • Identify the salient characteristics of your community, such as geography and demographics. Also, identify qualitative information that characterizes the community, such as common perspectives and interests or other bases of social ties. Information of this kind may be provided in the community needs assessment, or you may cite it from other sources.
    • Conduct a second search for epidemiology trends in your community focusing on government, nonprofit, and educational Web sites. You may find multiple sources depending on where you live.
      • Are the trends identified in the epidemiology reports consistent with the needs identified in the community needs assessments you read?
    • Use the information you have gathered to identify three, specific, high-priority health improvement needs of your community.
    • Assess how government, community agencies, and other stakeholders are currently addressing each problem.
    • Complete the Vila Health: Community Health Mission and included questions to develop your knowledge around best-practices in researching population health data and applying models.

    INSTRUCTIONS

    Based on the community needs assessment and your research, write a 3–5-page report discussing three or more specific high-priority health improvement needs in your community. As mentioned above, these could relate to nutrition, smoking, diabetes management, drug use, or other concerns. The goal of your report is to describe the needs of the community and how the community is currently addressing them.Consult the scoring guide to ensure you address all criteria at the level you desire.Include the following in your report:

    • Identify salient characteristics that define a community.
      • These characteristics include considerations such as geography, demographics, and qualitative information that characterizes the community, such as common perspectives and interests, or other bases of social ties.
    • Identify specific health improvement needs of a community by using epidemiological information.
      • Be sure to identify three, specific, high-priority health improvement needs of your community.
      • Support your choices by citing epidemiological information from your research.
    • Assess the current engagement of community stakeholders.
      • Stakeholders could include government, community agencies, private citizens, and health care organizations.
        • These stakeholders may be involved in programs to address your identified health improvement needs or may be directly impacted by them.
          • How are these stakeholders involved or impacted by your identified health improvement needs?
    • Describe treatment or wellness models that address an identified community health need.
      • Identify treatment or wellness models that are currently being used to address at least one of the high-priority health improvement needs of your community.
        • Describe these strategies or approaches currently being used.
        • Examine each strategy to determine if it is based on a treatment model or a wellness model.
          • How you can determine which kind of strategy is employed?
          • Note: You must identify at least one strategy based on a treatment model and one based on a wellness model. This may require you to look at more than one of your identified community health improvement needs. Also, it is possible you may need to do more research to meet this requirement.
      • Briefly discuss general advantages and disadvantages of treatment models versus wellness models from these examples.

Medieval Renaissance Rhetoric

Medieval/Renaissance Rhetoric

A short essay (250-350 words, usually a little less than one page typed, single-spaced), in which you examine medieval and/or Renaissance rhetoric. To what extent do you think that rhetoric in the Middle Ages continued the rhetorical tradition as it had been developed by the Greeks and the Romans? Some have argued that the medieval “arts” of letter-writing, poetry, and preaching keep only the forms of classical rhetoric, while others say they adapt the classical approach to the demands of a changing society. What do you think? Alternatively, you may pose your own question that covers the period and write about it. Just remember to keep your topic focused!

I am a stickler for good organization in everything. I do not want to have to dig for your answers. For instance, if an assignment asks you to provide three examples of something, I suggest that you number them 1-3 so I can find them easily. I also expect that when you submit something as a narrative, you pay attention to how you organize your thoughts: use paragraphs with a topic sentence and supporting sentences; and change paragraphs whenever you introduce a new idea. Also, if there are multiple parts to an assignment, use sub-heads within the paper to organize them.

 

 

To get maximum points you need to follow the requirements listed for this assignments 1) look at the word/page limits 2) review and follow APA rules 3) create subheadings to identify the key sections you are presenting and 4) Free from typographical and sentence construction errors.
