1. Prepare an
California EARTHQUAKE
analysis of Steps 1 through 3 of the MAPP Strategic Plan
initiatives and apply at least three quality and/or risk
management concepts, measures, and tools in your paper.
Your paper must be three to five double-spaced pages
(excluding the title and reference pages). In addition to the text,
utilize a minimum of two
scholarly and/or peer-reviewed
sources that were published within the last five years. Your
paper and all sources must be formatted according to APA style
as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
The MAPP process includes six steps (NACCHO
2010
):
1.
Organizing for Success
: This step involves organizing the planning process and
developing partnerships.
2.
Visioning
: The visioning step engages stakeholders in a collaborative,
creative process of developing a shared community vision with
common values.
3.
Conducting Community Assessments
: Four community assessments provide information about
internal and external environmental trends relevant to the
community:
•
Community Themes and Strengths Assessment
: Identifies local community interests, perceptions about quality
of life, and assets.

2. •
Local Public Health System Assessment
: Appraises the capacity of the local public health system to
conduct essential public health services.
•
Community Health Status Assessment
: Analyzes data about health status, quality of life, and risk
factors.
•
Forces of Change Assessment
: Identifies changing external forces and dynamics of the
community and the local public health system.
4.
Identifying Strategic Issues
: Similar to the “identification and evaluation of major strategic
issues and options” step in the planning model presented earlier,
in this step, participants develop a prioritized list of the most
important issues facing the community based on the results of
the four MAPP assessments and the shared community vision.
5.
Formulating Goals and Strategies
: In this step, participants take the strategic issues identified in
the previous phase and formulate goal statements and broad
strategies for addressing issues, resulting in the development
and adoption of an interrelated set of strategy statements.
6.
Action Cycle
: In this final step, the local public health system develops and
implements an action plan for addressing priority goals and
objectives. The plans are implemented and evaluated, with
ensuing adjustments in the earlier steps as necessary. The final
step in the MAPP process is similar to operations planning and
implementation in an organization.
