In this Application Assignment, you will describe the advantages and challenges facing the health care system in providing equal access to quality health care.
To prepare
for this Application Assignment, consider how health care is delivered to populations who are sometimes affected by the
Healthy People assigned focus area
you were previously assigned.
To complete
this Application Assignment,

two
intervention programs that have addressed these obstacles (e.g., prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation). You can find examples of these on the internet or by searching the library databases (CINAHL). Try searching with your Healthy People area (i.e. obestiy; heart disease) as a key term as well as the word "intervention" or "program"). You may also try looking at professional organizations that address that health issue. For example, the American Diabetes Association sponsors a program called "Project Power" which addresses diabetes type 2 among African Americans—specifically for church settings.
In your paper, summarize the programs by including the following:
The name of the program
The type of program (hospital based; for churches; online program, etc.)
Who has implemented the program (researchers, professional group, university, state, etc.) and where was it implemented:
For example, training programs are sometimes offered by commercial businesses and programs or activities are sometimes sponsored by federal government or professional organizations.

This document provides guidance and an example for applying the PEN-3 model to develop a culturally appropriate health education program. The PEN-3 model involves examining perceptions, enablers, and nurturers within three domains: cultural identity, relationships and expectations, and cultural empowerment. Students are asked to identify positive, existential, and negative perceptions that influence health behaviors for a target cultural group and health issue. An example is provided where perceptions of breast cancer screening among Native Hawaiian women are identified from scholarly sources and listed in a table.

May 2012, Alice Randall wrote an article for
The New York Times
on the cultural factors that encouraged black women to maintain a weight above what is considered healthy. Randall explained—from her observations and her personal experience as a black woman—that many African-American communities and cultures consider women who are overweight to be more beautiful and desirable than women at a healthier weight. As she put it, “Many black women are fat because we want to be” (Randall, 2012).
Randall’s statements sparked a great deal of controversy and debate; however, they emphasize an underlying reality in the healthcare field: different populations, cultures, and groups have diverse beliefs and practices that impact their health. Nurses and healthcare professionals should be aware of this reality and adapt their health assessment techniques and recommendations to accommodate diversity.
Consider different socioeconomic, spiritual, lifestyle, and other cultural factors that should be taken into considerations when building a health history for patients with diverse backgrounds.

Cultural Considerations in Nursing.docx
Cultural factors greatly influence maternal health and the use of maternal health services. Health beliefs and practices surrounding childbirth vary widely between cultures and can impact outcomes. To improve maternal health programs, healthcare providers must understand the cultural beliefs of the populations they serve and address those beliefs in culturally-sensitive ways. This involves identifying local cultures and subcultures, comprehending how cultural beliefs shape health behaviors, and developing interventions accordingly. A nurse can provide culturally competent care by respecting a client's cultural views and preferences regarding childbirth.

This document discusses three case studies involving patients from diverse cultural backgrounds who are seeking healthcare. The case studies involve an elderly Asian man dependent on his daughter, a pregnant lesbian woman, and a young Native American man struggling with anxiety. Nurses are instructed to select one case study and consider the socioeconomic, spiritual, lifestyle and cultural factors relevant to building an effective health history for the patient. They are asked to propose five targeted questions that are sensitive to the patient's background and needs. The goal is for nurses to effectively communicate and gather necessary health information while being respectful of different cultural perspectives.

Health inequity is a serious healthcare problem that negatively affects everyone. This problem worsens the health outcomes of the population it directly impacts and those with resources and power. For instance, health disparity makes it hard to control, contain and treat infections illnesses, like the Covid-19, therefore putting everyone at risk of contracting the disease regardless of their socioeconomic class. Culture plays a critical role in patient care and health outcomes and affects our perception of others, health behaviors, and expectations during care delivery. This paper discusses health inequalities, advocacy for families, patients, and community, and cultural competencies. Comment by lola siyanbola: Can you explain how?
Health inequalities involve differences in health resources' distribution of health between different population groups resulting from social conditions in which members of the population are born, live, grow, work and age. The inequalities are basically the systematic differences in the status of health between population groups (Marmot, 2017). The inequalities have substantial economic and social costs to both persons and communities. Social factors including employment status, education level, gender, ethnicity, and level of income affect an individual's health status, therefore creating health disparities among populations due to variations of the social factors (Malbon, 2019). Lower socioeconomic status is associated with poor health outcomes. The appropriate combination of government policies can address these health disparities. Comment by lola siyanbola: This is a fact can you rephrase or cite Comment by lola siyanbola: This is too vague, can you elaborate a little?
I would advocate for patients by connecting them with resources outside and inside the hospital to support their wellbeing and double-check for errors to identify, stop, and correct errors to ensure their safety (Doucette et al., 2018). I would educate the patients on the best way to manage their health conditions and improve their quality of life. Protecting patients' rights and giving them a voice, particularly when vulnerable, is key to safe and quality patient care. I would advocate for families by utilizing my expertise to persuade the hospital authorities about the economic position of the family, their educational level, and their cultural values about patient care. I would advocate for the community by working to ensure community members are adequately and fairly treated in all matters of health.
The first Implicit Association Tests (IAT) reveals that I hold a moderate automatic preference for Arab Muslims with 26% over Other People. This means that I am likely to respond moderately respond faster to the care needs of patients from the Arap Muslim compared to other patients. ...

Personal Background John Smith is an American who is thirty years old.He is an African-American.Works as a janitor in Texas.
John Smith is one of the African Americans who have been working hard to ensure that the do make the ends meet. At the age of thirty year old, he has been able to open a business of janitorial services thus employing twenty people. His hard work has placed him a the position of the best companies in Texas offering these services. His family is known to have come to Texas in over fifty years ago. After completing the college, he chose to offer janitorial services to people of the region. He is known to be an honest man who does his duties diligently.

Where he Lives
The man has lived in Texas for better part of his life. He has been interacting with different people both professionally and socially. Texas is his home and he has businesses at this region
John is a person who has lived in Texas all of his life. In fact, most of his schooling was conducted in this region. This areas is known to have many people of different cultures which has forced him to learn to tolerate. This region is also known to be culturally rich compared to other parts of the area. The business that he operates has been opened in this region.

Cultural FactsThis person has undergone through most of the African Americans rites of passage. He underwent through thorough shaving by that was a must to conducted.He had to learn different cultures so as to interact with the neighbors freely.
Learning to adapt to different culture is a difficult task that each person has to give a try. As for John, this was the only way he could have survived to live in this region. Therefore, this was a choice he could have made earlier or later in life and there was no way out of it. The most interesting of all was being asked to be shaved at the age of thirteen to symbolize that he was about to be recognized by the society as a fully grown man. In addition, understanding different cultures was to his advantage because he was now capable of interacting with different cultures(Castillo, 2006).

Experiences in adapting new cultureLanguage barrier Emotional constraintsBehavior constraints
While learning these cultures, John encountered different experiences including the one for language barrier. It was difficult for him to figure out what some of the words meant so that he could have understood that culture more. Emotional constraints were other experiences that he encountered while adapting. Finally, there were behavior constraints that gave him the perfect experience for understanding that particular culture(Tosi, 2013).

Population Cultural is age 40-60 females / males that have uncontrolled blood pressure due lack of resources (education, awareness, money..etc)
Practicum Discussion: Culturally aware nurses recognize that states of health are revealed differently across cultures and ethnicities. Culture and ethnic background will affect the way each individual responds to health, illness, and death (Stanhope & Lancaster, 2016). These nurses are also aware of their own biases, which may affect the care they provide to others (Stanhope & Lancaster, 2016). Because most nurses work in institutions with individual patients, they are accustomed to delivering culturally competent care on a one-on-one basis. When a public health nurse deals with a population, he or she must consider how the population culture affects the ways in which the community nurse may interact. This can be with regard to the provision of education or mass health care needs such as those required in a foodborne illness, if mass vaccinations are needed for a communicable disease outbreak, or if education is required to prevent heart disease. In addition to understanding the nuances of the culture of a population, community health nurses must understand the role genetics play in health. Some disorders, such as glaucoma and diabetes, have a genetic link, as do some cancers, such as breast and ovarian.
Please discuss the following questions in your Practicum Discussion:
1.Provide a few examples of community resources that should be put in place to assist your population in resolving their health care needs. What gaps in service do you see that affect your population?
2.Are there any cultural considerations that might inform your approach to caring for this population?
3.Does your population have a genetic predisposition to the health care problem you have identified?
4.Identify at least one evidence-based, culturally competent behavior change that would promote health for your selected population and for the specific health care problem you are addressing?

The assessment requires identifying a vulnerable population, comparing its health risks to others, analyzing factors influencing its health outcomes, and recommending initiatives based on research.
The U.S Healthcare System, African Americans and the Notion of Toughing It Ou...
This project presentation will explore whether or not African American adults are less engaged patients, and whether the notion of toughing it out plays a significant role regarding how African Americans interact with their healthcare.
The Tuskegee Experiment was not the first time that African Americans were experimented on for scientific gain. One book that examines this history is titled Medical Apartheid (Washington, 2006). The novel dives into the dark history of medical experiments on Blacks, including, but not limited to inhumane slavery assessments and Marion Sims’ gynecologic obscenities on Black women (Wall, 2006). Though these debacles occurred decades ago, I propose that these events may continue to play a role in the way African Americans interact with the American healthcare system. Today, there are rules in place to prevent such issues with consent. However, after historically being placed in positions marked by humiliation and mistreatment based on skin color, I wanted to obtain a clearer understanding of whether or not African Americans have responded to the effects of these events by limiting their trust of other people, creating gender norms within their communities, and “toughing it out”.
The structure of this power point presentation for my final paper from HLTHCOMM440, Engaging Patients in Care, will begin by defining this demographic by its key cultural attributes. Second, the paper will highlight research on how one health belief, “toughing it out”, effects African American patient engagement levels. Third, the paper will summarize and discuss the methodology and results from a standardized patient engagement survey, and compare them to the existing literature. Finally, this paper will highlight a hypothetical federally funded health care program, titled “Mandating Mental Health First Aid in Chicago Businesses”, which will require all mid-size and large companies in Chicago to train human resources professionals in “Mental Health First Aid”. This intervention not only benefits African American employees in Chicago, but entire staffs in Chicago in general. In this way, the program does not target African Americans, but seeks to offer helpful resources on mental health that due to either a lack of access or stigmatization, some African Americans may or may not have be aware of. Therefore, the point of having this program is to help employees , especially newer employees, feel supported as the manage the many facets of their lives. Whether or not resources are utilized will depend on many individualistic factors that are including in this presentation. However, the first step towards health equity is to offer equal resources, to everyone.
For access to the standardized survey, please contact Chelsea Dade via email (chelseadade2018@u.northwestern.edu).

The document provides a case study and discussion questions for a nursing course. It describes a 28-year-old African American patient, Shawn Billings, who has come to the clinic for the third time this week with a severe headache. Students are asked to reflect on cultural factors that may impact the patient's health, including socioeconomic status, spirituality, and lifestyle. They are also asked to develop five targeted health history questions that are sensitive to the patient's background and culture. The document provides references in APA style to support discussing cultural competence when interacting with patients from diverse populations.
Identify any genetic predisposition your chosen population ( Hispani
Identify any genetic predisposition your chosen population ( Hispanics) has to a particular disease ( Diabetes) and develop primary practice interventions that reflect the cultural considerations of the population.
Then, develop culturally appropriate, measurable interventions to help your population members maintain an optimal state of health, avoiding the problem that you identified them being at risk for developing.
Culturally aware nurses recognize that states of health are revealed differently across cultures and ethnicities. Culture and ethnic background will affect the way each individual responds to health, illness, and death (Stanhope & Lancaster, 2016). These nurses are also aware of their own biases, which may affect the care they provide to others (Stanhope & Lancaster, 2016). Because most nurses work in institutions with individual patients, they are accustomed to delivering culturally competent care on a one-on-one basis. When a public health nurse deals with a population, he or she must consider how the population culture affects the ways in which the community nurse may interact. This can be with regard to the provision of education or mass health care needs such as those required in a foodborne illness, if mass vaccinations are needed for a communicable disease outbreak, or if education is required to prevent heart disease. In addition to understanding the nuances of the culture of a population, community health nurses must understand the role genetics play in health. Some disorders, such as glaucoma and diabetes, have a genetic link, as do some cancers, such as breast and ovarian.
Please discuss the following questions in no less than 4-5 paragraphs
· Provide a few examples of community resources that should be put in place to assist your population in resolving their health care needs. What gaps in service do you see that affect your population?
· Are there any cultural considerations that might inform your approach to caring for this population?
· Does your population have a genetic predisposition to the health care problem you have identified?
· Identify at least one evidence-based, culturally competent behavior change that would promote health for your selected population and for the specific health care problem you are addressing?

The Obama administration promoted high-speed rail projects across major US states to adopt more environmentally friendly transportation initiatives and improve infrastructure. California accepted billions in federal grants to begin developing a high-speed rail line, though critics argue the projected ridership and costs make the project economically unfeasible, especially given California's budget issues.

Diversity and Anxiety Disorder discussion.docx
This document discusses three case studies involving patients from diverse cultural backgrounds who are seeking healthcare. The case studies involve an elderly Asian man dependent on his daughter, a pregnant lesbian woman, and a young Native American man struggling with anxiety. Nurses are instructed to select one case study and consider the socioeconomic, spiritual, lifestyle and cultural factors relevant to building an effective health history for the patient. They are asked to propose five targeted questions that are sensitive to the patient's background and needs. The goal is for nurses to effectively communicate and gather necessary health information while being respectful of different cultural perspectives.

Health inequity is a serious healthcare problem that negatively affects everyone. This problem worsens the health outcomes of the population it directly impacts and those with resources and power. For instance, health disparity makes it hard to control, contain and treat infections illnesses, like the Covid-19, therefore putting everyone at risk of contracting the disease regardless of their socioeconomic class. Culture plays a critical role in patient care and health outcomes and affects our perception of others, health behaviors, and expectations during care delivery. This paper discusses health inequalities, advocacy for families, patients, and community, and cultural competencies. Comment by lola siyanbola: Can you explain how?
Health inequalities involve differences in health resources' distribution of health between different population groups resulting from social conditions in which members of the population are born, live, grow, work and age. The inequalities are basically the systematic differences in the status of health between population groups (Marmot, 2017). The inequalities have substantial economic and social costs to both persons and communities. Social factors including employment status, education level, gender, ethnicity, and level of income affect an individual's health status, therefore creating health disparities among populations due to variations of the social factors (Malbon, 2019). Lower socioeconomic status is associated with poor health outcomes. The appropriate combination of government policies can address these health disparities. Comment by lola siyanbola: This is a fact can you rephrase or cite Comment by lola siyanbola: This is too vague, can you elaborate a little?
I would advocate for patients by connecting them with resources outside and inside the hospital to support their wellbeing and double-check for errors to identify, stop, and correct errors to ensure their safety (Doucette et al., 2018). I would educate the patients on the best way to manage their health conditions and improve their quality of life. Protecting patients' rights and giving them a voice, particularly when vulnerable, is key to safe and quality patient care. I would advocate for families by utilizing my expertise to persuade the hospital authorities about the economic position of the family, their educational level, and their cultural values about patient care. I would advocate for the community by working to ensure community members are adequately and fairly treated in all matters of health.
The first Implicit Association Tests (IAT) reveals that I hold a moderate automatic preference for Arab Muslims with 26% over Other People. This means that I am likely to respond moderately respond faster to the care needs of patients from the Arap Muslim compared to other patients. ...

Learning to adapt to different culture is a difficult task that each person has to give a try. As for John, this was the only way he could have survived to live in this region. Therefore, this was a choice he could have made earlier or later in life and there was no way out of it. The most interesting of all was being asked to be shaved at the age of thirteen to symbolize that he was about to be recognized by the society as a fully grown man. In addition, understanding different cultures was to his advantage because he was now capable of interacting with different cultures(Castillo, 2006).

While learning these cultures, John encountered different experiences including the one for language barrier.

The Obama administration promoted high-speed rail projects across major US states to adopt more environmentally friendly transportation initiatives and improve infrastructure.

Supporters counter that large public works projects can have broader economic and social benefits beyond just transportation.

The article provides insights into the political and social challenges of promoting desegregation and reducing healthcare disparities during the Civil Rights era.
Race and Technology.docx
Race alone is an inadequate category for studying labor histories because it does not account for other factors like gender. When telephone operator jobs transformed from predominantly white to black workers, African American women faced discrimination and stereotyping in their roles. Bell System's hiring policies and perceptions of black women were guided by wider societal racism and sexism. Bell publications portrayed African Americans in stereotypical, demeaning ways. The New York Telephone Company initially refused to hire African Americans in 1920 due to concerns about customer prejudice, and again in the 1930s during a period of high unemployment that exacerbated racial tensions. Prior to 1940, AT&T had very limited hiring of African American women for telephone operator jobs. The Civil Rights era prompted changes to Bell
