(HEPE) Introduction To Social Determinants Of Health (Hepe) 1antz505
Many youth leaders are compelled to do work with community based non-profit and local public health agencies as both a service learning and philanthropic component in their development as young professionals. However, despite invaluable experiential learning, students often don\'t comprehend key overarching issues such as health disparities, social determinants of health, health policy and community organizing. To address this gap and optimize their community based work, the Health Disparities Student Collaborative (HDSC), a Boston-based student group under Critical MASS for eliminating health disparities and the Center for Community Health Education Research and Service Inc. (CCHERS), developed a curriculum for students designed to broaden their perspectives while working with local public health, non-profit/community organizations and to develop their interest and ability to visualize the power of their collective voice as students and contributors to social justice work. The curriculum utilizes peer education and webinar software and covers three main topics: Current State of Health Disparities, Social Determinants of Health, and Youth Activism on Health Disparities/Social Determinants of Health. HDSC has collaborated with local partners CCHERS/Critical MASS and the Community Based Public Health Caucus (CBPHC) Youth Council to develop this comprehensive “Health Equality Peer Education” training.

Social and economic policies can change health inequalities sophieproject
Conclusions of the SOPHIE project presented at the meeting of the DG SANTE Expert Group on Social Determinants of Health. Luxembourg, 10th of March 2016.
SURVEY OF PERSONAL WELLBEING. REPORT & EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
It is estimated that more than 450 million people in the world are affected by ‘disorders of the mind’, manifested by emotional or mental distress. The challenges for prevention and healing are significant, ranging from the social stigma that prevents people from seeking help, a lack of awareness in people themselves, insufficient resources and trained professionals, and the lack of culturally informed assessment and support.
As the world experiences unprecedented social and demographic change, wellbeing (‘social capital’) has risen up the political agenda for a complex mix of philosophical and economic factors. At the personal level, wellbeing enables us to live fulfilled lives.
CAREIF with the WPA conducted an international WELLBEING Survey to understand more about what constitutes ‘wellbeing’ in different cultures and settings, and how we can enhance personal wellbeing for individual and social benefit. This report will be launched at a CAREIF celebratory reception in the House of Lords (UK) on 26 October 2016.

Article 1: Immigration as a Social Determinant of Health
Castañeda, H., Holmes, S. M., Madrigal, D. S., Young, M.-E. D., Beyeler, N., & Quesada, J.
(2015). Immigration as a Social Determinant of Health. Annual Review of Public
Health, 36(1), 375–392. doi: 10.1146/annurev-publhealth-032013-182419
Abstract
Although immigration and immigrant populations have become increasingly important foci in
public health research and practice, a social determinants of health approach has seldom been
applied in this area. Global patterns of morbidity and mortality follow inequities rooted in
societal, political, and economic conditions produced and reproduced by social structures,
policies, and institutions. The lack of dialogue between these two profoundly related
phenomena—social determinants of health and immigration—has resulted in missed
opportunities for public health research, practice, and policy work. In this article, we discuss
primary frameworks used in recent public health literature on the health of immigrant
populations, note gaps in this literature, and argue for a broader examination of immigration as
both socially determined and a social determinant of health. We discuss priorities for future
research and policy to understand more fully and respond appropriately to the health of the
populations affected by this global phenomenon.
Annotated Bibliography
The article reports on the importance of identifying social determinants and the effects of
socially determined structures among immigrant populations in the United States. The study
identifies ways in which immigrants health outcomes are based on biases due to using
3
information based on group behaviors instead of on an induvial case. The impact of migrant and
immigrant individuals, physical and mental health in these communities’ changes as social,
economic, and political policies take place. This article is helpful in that broadens the
immigration experience including more central factors than just language, income, or education
as the cause of all health related problems in this community. But to show factors of power
structures and the ability to put in place effective health interventions that respond to direct
causes of poor or declining health in these populations.

Working Together for Health
Efforts to improve public health occur around the world every day. However, simply attempting to fix a problem without acknowledging, and respecting, the relationship between culture and health is not likely to have long-term success. Successful interventions, such as those in the case studies presented in your resources, demonstrate organizational collaboration. They also highlight the value of cultural relativism to improve population health outcomes. Working for the people (and with the people) can make an important impact on health.
To prepare for this Discussion, review Chapter 2, "Communities Working to Achieve Health Equity," in the Promoting Health Equity document from Week 2. Select one case study to profile in your discussion. How do the key concepts, addressed in this week's Learning Resources, relate to the case study you selected?
1. Briefly describe the population and health issue addressed in the case study.
2. In what way did cultural beliefs and behaviors contribute to the health issue in these case studies?
3. Which public health (or other) groups intervened, and how did they cooperate to improve health for this population?
4. What measures did the organization take to ensure they respected the dignity of the individuals and their culture?
5. How does this case study relate to our class resources addressing culture and collaboration?

For this discussion, I will access the overall health and identify key issues in Garland County, Arkansas. According to County Health Rankings of 2017, in the area of health outcomes Garland County, Arkansas ranked 44 out of 75 counties. When reviewing national and state results, Arkansas exceeded the U.S. median in all categories of health outcomes. For the health factors summary, they ranked much lower coming in at 28. In the category of health behaviors, 25% of adult Arkansans are smokers and 34% are obese. Both of these percentages are above national averages. Referring back to the topic of my previous discussion, the number of diagnosed sexually transmitted diseases was almost twice as many as the national average and the teen birth rate almost doubled the national average. In the category of clinical care Arkansas is near equal or slightly lower than national averages. Social and economic factors also rank fairly close to the national averages. Overall physical environment factors are no different than the national averages. In my opinion, Arkansas is a fairly clean and comfortable place to live.
After considering these statistics, I can answer the opening question of this discussion. "How healthy is your community?" Not very! As a health ...

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.

Evalua5on
of
the
Dependence
Act
Background
In
Spain,
over
80%
of
the
care
to
dependent
people
is
provided
by
relaNves
-‐
mostly
women,
and
in
low
socio-‐economic
posiNon.
The
physical
and
mental
health
impacts
of
this
informal
caregiving
are
well
documented.
The
2006
“Ley
de
Dependencia”
established
the
universal
right
to
social
services
(at
home
or
in
care
centres)
and
benefits
(economic
contribuNon
for
family
caregivers)
for
people
in
need
of
long-‐term
care.
ImplementaNon
of
the
Act
has
been
delayed
by
budgetary
constraints,
more

Women
Men
Health
indicators
improved
more
in
caregivers
–
above
all
those
sharing
the
care
–
than
in
non-‐
caregivers.
In
2012,
women
caring
alone
had
diminished
but
were
sNll
the
largest
group
and
the
one
with
poorest
health.
20. The
impact
of
social
policies
on
gender
inequali5es
in
health.
Conclusions
Policies
that
support
women’s
parNcipaNon
in
the
labour
force
and
decrease
their
burden
of
care,
such
as
increasing
public
services
and
support
for
families
and
enNtlements
for
fathers,
are
related
to
lower
levels
of
gender
inequality
in
terms
of
health.
Public
services
and
benefits
for
disabled
and
dependent
people
can
reduce
the
burden
placed
on
their
family
caregivers
and
hence
improve
their
health.
