42. IDENTIFYING GROUP OR COMM
UNITY HEALTH PROBLEMS
Nursing education focuses on individuals, families, and communities, but nurses often practice
at the individual and family level.
• Nurses can expand their practice to the community level to address persistent health
issues.
• They can identify these issues by considering objectives like Healthy People

.
• Nurses collaborate with community agencies to find solutions for individuals and
families facing problems.
• Examples of community health issues include ER overuse, elderly hospitalizations,
child car seat safety, and improving outcomes for diabetes and asthma, and addressing
childhood obesity.
43. Delineating the Problem to be
Addressed
•- Nurses identified childhood obesity as a problem in a local elementary
school.
•- Initial plan for a special educational program was deemed embarrassing
and ineffective.
•-Advisory group identified behavioral factors contributing to childhood
obesity.
•- Factors include unhealthy school lunches, lack of physical activity, and
stress.
•- Nurses are developing a health promotion program to address these
factors.
44. Rating the Importance and Changeability of Identified
Behavioral Factors
1. - Focusing on a limited number of health behaviors is crucial for program
success.
2. - Prioritization should be based on importance and changeability.
3. - Importance is determined by frequency and link to health problems.
4. -Availability of sports equipment ranked lower in importance for
childhood obesity.
5. - Poor quality of school-provided meals was highly rated as a
contributing factor to obesity.

48. •The PRECEDE-PROCEED model is a framework for planning and evaluating health
promotion
programs.
•The model identifies three categories of factors that affect individual behavior:
predisposing factors, reinforcing factors, and enabling factors.
•Predisposing factors are the beliefs, attitudes, and knowledge that influence a person's
behavior.
•Reinforcing factors are the things that encourage a person to continue a behavior.
•Enabling factors are the resources and opportunities that make it possible for a person to
change their behavior.

50. EVALUATION OF OUTCOMES
•The Public HealthAccreditation Board has 12 domains of standards, three of which are particularly
relevant to program development and outcome measurement:
• Engage with the community to identify and address health problems
• Evaluate and continually improve health department processes, programs, and interventions
• Contribute to and apply the evidence base of public health
•Logic models are a tool that can be used to plan and evaluate health promotion programs.
•Logic models show the causal relationship between the inputs, activities, outputs, and outcomes of a
program.
51. CASE STUDY ON LOGIC MODELS FOR PROGRAM PLANNING, MONIT
ORING AND EVALUATION
52. Setting Measurable Goals and Objectives
Using the logic model as a guide, planned programs should
have specific goals to help identify who the program is sup
posed to serve, what services are provided, the length of ti
me the services are to be provided, and the resources that a
re needed.
Then, measurable objectives are developed that describe th
e expected outcomes.

53. Evaluation of Outcomes
53
• Ensure quality through measurable outcomes and standards of practice in
programs and services
– Setting measurable goals and objectives
– Evaluating outcomes
• Quality indicators of client outcomes: quantitative measures of client’s response
to care; part of a broader quality management program; used to determine goal
achievement
• Benchmarking: continuous, collaborative, systematic processes for measuring
and examining internal programs’ strengths and weaknesses; also studying
another’s processes to improve own
