The document discusses how healthcare policies aim to promote population health through prevention, wellness, and eliminating health disparities. It notes that good health benefits society as a whole, not just individuals. Healthcare issues become prominent parts of presidential agendas because every citizen has a stake in related policy decisions, leading to heated debates. The document prompts considering how current and previous presidents have addressed issues like mental health, HIV, opioid epidemics, etc. and what could be done differently.

Global health
Global health is the health of populations in the global context; it has been defined as "the area of study, research and practice that places a priority on improving health and achieving equity in health for all people worldwide".Problems that transcend national borders or have a global political and economic impact are often emphasized.Thus, global health is about worldwide health improvement (including mental health), reduction of disparities, and protection against global threats that disregard national borders.Global health is not to be confused with international health, which is defined as the branch of public health focusing on developing nations and foreign aid efforts by industrialized countries.Global health can be measured as a function of various global diseases and their prevalence in the world and threat to decrease life in the present day.

ABSTRACT
Diabetes is a national health problem, and the burden of the disease and its consequences
particularly affect Hispanics. While social determinants of health models have improved our
conceptualization of how certain contexts and environments influence an individual's ability
to make healthy choices, a structural violence framework transcends traditional uni-
dimensional analysis. Thus, a structural violence approach is capable of revealing dynamics
of social practices that operate across multiple dimensions of people’s lives in ways that may
not immediately appear related to health. Working with a Hispanic immigrant community in
Albuquerque, New Mexico, we demonstrate how structural forces simultaneously directly
inhibit access to appropriate healthcare services and create fear among immigrants, acting to
further undermine health and nurture disparity. Although fear is not normally directly
associated with diabetes health outcomes, in the community where we conducted this study
participant narratives discussed fear and health as interconnected.

“There is a powerful, enervating anxiety created by the limits of our
control over our small worlds and even over our inner selves. This is the
existential fear that wakes us at 3 a.m. with night sweats and a dreaded inner
voice that has us gnawing our lip, because of the threats to what matters most to
us” (Kleinman 2006b, p. 6)
“… it has long been clear that medical and public health interventions will fail if
we are unable to understand the social determinants of disease”

INTRODUCTION
Diabetes has become an epidemic problem in the U.S. (Boyle, Thompson, Gregg, Barker,
and Williamson 2010; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2011). Approximately 8.3%
of the population (or 25.8 million people) suffer from diabetes in the U.S., with the majority
(nearly 95%) having type-2 diabetes (Center ...
Assignment OverviewCyber is a relatively new word that did not .docx
Assignment Overview:
Cyber is a relatively new word that did not gain prominence until three short decades ago. Since then, words such as cyberwar, cyber-attack, cyber-crime, cyberterrorism, and cybersecurity have emerged. In April 2015, Loretta Lynch became the nation's new attorney general. At the forefront of the attorney general's security concerns are social media technology, ISIS systematically exploiting the Internet, and the threat of cyber-attack. According to Lynch, a cyber-attack by the Islamic State is perhaps the terror group’s biggest emerging threat. "Concern that ISIS or any of our foreign enemies might develop that capacity … is the thing that keeps me and many of my colleagues in law enforcement up at night,” Lynch told ABC’s News' Pierre Thomas. Understanding cyber threats begins with understanding the history of technology.
Assignment Task:
History and advancing technology make it imperative to examine the cyber significance of the years 1945, 1963, 1969, 1970, 1979, 1983, and 1984 to better understand how these advancements have historically influenced modern day cybersecurity.
From your research, discuss how ISIS-type organizations have exploited advancements in technology. Describe how these historical influences have affected national security.

Determinants of Health
SoumenSengupta
Definition
Health is classically defined as ‘a state of complete physical, social and mental health, and not merely the
absence of disease or infirmity’ (WHO, 1948). As such, health is as much a social construct as a biological
characteristic. It is the product of a complex interaction of different factors: this is true at both individual and
population levels. These determinants include not just an individual's particular characteristics and behav-
iours but also their economic, physical and social environments (Ashton and Seymour, 1992).
Key Points
• Health is created by a complicated interaction of different factors, only some of which can be directly
influenced by individuals.
• Social determinants tend to have a greater impact on population health status than healthcare ser-
vices.
• Different determinants have a differential influence on different groups of people: this can contribute

Overview: Dr. Marcia Stanhope (2020) explained that evidence-based public health practice refers to those decisions made by using the best available evidence, data and information systems and program frameworks; engaging community stakeholders in the decision-making process; evaluating the results; and then disseminating that information to those who can use the information.
Practicum Discussion: This week, your assignment will be to incorporate all of the information you have gathered from the community—including the population itself, health data, interviews/conversations with interested community members, and your community assessment, including your Windshield Survey—as well as what you have gathered from scholarly literature to propose measureable interventions. Measureable interventions mean that the results can be measured through some data that could be collected (Stanhope, 2020). This requires thinking in terms of actions and then measuring results. An evaluation of interventions is important to see whether or not they are effective in solving a health care problem. Remember, you will need to use the data you gathered to determine whether or not a problem exists in your community and to then determine whether your interventions might be effective.
Please discuss the following points in your Practicum Discussion:
Identify one evidence-based behavior change that would promote health in your selected population.
Suggest one specific culturally sensitive, evidence-based, measureable intervention to address the health problem for your selected population.
Think in terms of measuring outcomes. What outcomes would you expect to see once the intervention(s) are in place? Be specific.

GOAL of PRACTICUM PROJECT
Overall Purpose for Practicum:
Develop a potential project to improve the health of a specific population of interest or a population at risk.
This practicum is designed to help you develop as a scholar practitioner and health leader to promote positive social change in your own community. In this practicum experience you will focus on
primary prevention
of a health problem in your community (see text for definition.) You already possess the knowledge and skills to help those who are acutely ill. This experience will help learn how to prevent a health problem in a specific population at risk at the
community and system level of care
(see text for definition). Consequently, because you are well aware of how to care for individuals you will now develop leadership and advocacy skills to improve the health of the communi.
Health Campaign to decrease Heart Disease
According to “Heart Disease and Stroke” (2013), “Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States. Together, heart disease and stroke are among the most widespread and costly health problems facing the Nation today, accounting for more than $500 billion in health care expenditures and related expenses in 2010 alone. Fortunately, they are also among the most preventable” (para. 2)

He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Consider a topic opioid.docx
- 1. Consider a topic (mental health, HIV, opioid epidemic, pandemics, obesity, Rather than focus on the treatment of chronic disease, policies that influence population health tend to emphasize prevention and wellness; the reduction or elimination of waste and the eradication of health disparities based on race, ethnicity, language, income, gender, sexual orientation, disability and other factors. The reasoning is that good health belongs to the whole, not just an individual. (New York State Dept. of Health, n.d.)Regardless of political affiliation, every citizen has a stake in healthcare policy decisions. Hence, it is little wonder why healthcare items become such high-profile components of presidential agendas. It is also little wonder why they become such hotly debated agenda items.Consider a topic (mental health, HIV, opioid epidemic, pandemics, obesity, prescription drug prices, or many others) that rises to the presidential level. How did the current and previous presidents handle the problem? What would you do differently?Reference:New York State Department of Health. (n.d.). Making New York the healthiest state: Achieving the triple aim. Retrieved June 21, 2021 from https://www.health.ny.gov/events/population_health…
