What is population health?
- Population health is a framework for studying and improving the health of populations through collective action and learning. It aims to protect health and promote equity.
- Health inequities exist along racial lines in San Francisco due to unevenly distributed social and economic obstacles to health. Structural racism and discrimination contribute to toxic stress that affects health across the lifespan.
- Improving population health requires a life-course approach that addresses the roots of inequities from early childhood through strengthening neighborhoods and families, especially for vulnerable groups. Leaders must prioritize policies that support population health from birth.
Global health & nursing
Global nursing aims to promote sustainable planetary health and equity for all people through an evidence-based nursing process. It considers social determinants of health and includes individual, population-level care, research, education, leadership, advocacy and policy initiatives. Global nurses engage ethically and respect human dignity, rights and diversity, partnering with communities and other providers.
Obesity Final Paper [402119]
This document discusses applying nursing theory to adult obesity. It summarizes three relevant theories: integrated theory of health behavior change, modeling and role-modeling theory, and critical theory. It analyzes how each theory addresses concepts like health, environment, and interdisciplinary approaches. The document concludes that while integrated theory of health behavior change may be best to empower individuals for weight loss, combining elements of all three theories could strengthen interventions for obesity management, especially when incorporating mobile technologies.
Economic Burden of Alcohol Consumption in the City and County of San Francisc...
The document summarizes the economic burden of alcohol consumption in San Francisco. It estimates that the total annual city administrative and programmatic costs related to alcohol abuse are $54.8 million. When considering broader economic costs, the total annual costs to San Francisco are estimated to be over $500 million. Excessive drinking is associated with a wide range of negative health outcomes and costs to both individuals and society. Reducing excessive alcohol consumption could help improve health and lower economic burdens.
Chapter 1
The document discusses several topics related to health including definitions of health, components of health, leading causes of death in the US, health promotion goals, minority health status, alternative medical practices, and health issues across the lifespan. It provides statistics on life expectancy, infant mortality, causes of death for different age groups, and health risks among minority populations. The document also discusses models for analyzing health information and concerns about alternative medical therapies.
Final presentation
This document discusses major health issues impacting Australian youth such as eating disorders, depression, anxiety, self-injury, suicide, and substance abuse. It also examines factors influencing youth health like genetics, family, peers, and socioeconomic status. Finally, it explores how physical activity and school programs can help achieve better mental health outcomes for students.
Quality of life (QoL) and Wellbeing (WB) - differences and similarities
Well-being is about Quality of Life. In Health related evaluation both are Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) tools, measuring population health and relate therefore strongly with Behavioral Economics. Both are lowering Healthcare costs, raising productivity and therefore community competitiveness . They also relate to Active and Healthy Ageing (AHA) theory for elderly population, and Gerontology/Geriatric Assessment.
Hametz-ShenkFINALCapstone2016
This document summarizes a study on barriers to diabetes care in the Appalachian region. 27 participants were interviewed across two counties in West Virginia. 4 major themes emerged from the interviews related to barriers: 1) Lack of access to healthcare resources and education, 2) High rates of obesity, 3) Socioeconomic challenges like low income and lack of insurance, 4) Geographic isolation. The identical themes between counties suggest similar barriers may exist throughout Appalachia. The study used Leininger's theory of cultural care to guide ethnographic interviews and identify culturally appropriate ways to address diabetes in the region.

View point on global health
Global health is an emerging field that draws from public health and international health. While these fields share similarities like a focus on populations and prevention, global health is distinct in that it addresses health issues that transcend national borders and involve multiple countries and disciplines. The document presents a definition of global health agreed upon by an international panel as "an area for study, research, and practice that places a priority on improving health and achieving equity in health for all people worldwide." It emphasizes transnational health problems and solutions, an interdisciplinary approach, and a balance of population-based prevention and individual clinical care.
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.

The major sources of health disparities are identified as socioeconomic status, race/ethnicity, and geography. Mississippi is highlighted as a state with significant health disparities, both historically and currently. The goal of the report is to examine what would be required for Mississippi to achieve national health norms by measuring disparities in various health issues.
Cardiorespiratory Fitness, Health Outcomes, and Health Care Costs: The Case f...
Physical inactivity is becoming a world-wide epidemic – and the consequences can be both costly and deadly. This was outlined by Dr. Jonathan Myers who, citing a range of studies and recent research results, was able to show hard-hitting data related to the correlation between fitness (or lack thereof) and poor health. Myers argues fitness may well be a better marker than traditional risk factors for CVD and all-cause mortality. Amongst the eye-opening findings presented to the audience was that, for the first time, global deaths-per-year due to physical inactivity are higher than for smoking.

Health promotion is more significant today than any time in recent memory in tending to general
medical issues. The wellbeing situation is situated at one of a kind junction as the world is
confronting a \'triple weight of infections\' constituted by the unfinished motivation of
transferable ailments, recently rising and re-developing maladies and also the extraordinary
ascent of noncommunicable perpetual illnesses. The components which help advance and
improvement in this day and age, for example, globalization of exchange, urbanization,
simplicity of worldwide travel, propelled advances, and so forth., go about as a twofold edged
sword as they prompt to positive wellbeing results on one hand and increment the helplessness to
weakness then again as these add to stationary ways of life and unfortunate dietary examples.
There is a high pervasiveness of tobacco use alongside increment in undesirable dietary practices
and abatement in physical action adding to increment in natural hazard elements which thusly
prompts to increment in noncommunicable sicknesses.
Wellbeing, as the World Health Organization (WHO) characterizes, is the condition of finish
physical, social and mental prosperity and not only the nonattendance of sickness or ailment. The
satisfaction in most elevated achievable standard of wellbeing is considered as one of the
principal privileges of each human being.(5) Over the previous couple of decades, there is an
expanding acknowledgment that biomedical mediations alone can\'t ensure better wellbeing.
Wellbeing is intensely impacted by variables outside the area of the wellbeing part, particularly
social, financial and political strengths. These powers to a great extent shape the conditions in
which individuals develop, live, work and age and additionally the frameworks set up to manage
wellbeing needs at last prompting to disparities in wellbeing between and inside nations. Along
these lines, the achievement of the most elevated conceivable standard of wellbeing relies on
upon a thorough, comprehensive approach which goes past the conventional therapeudic mind,
including groups, wellbeing suppliers and different partners. This all encompassing methodology
ought to engage people and groups to take activities for their own wellbeing, cultivate authority

Social Determinants of Health Inequities
Lecture given during the pre-APRM workshop on Social Determinants of Health and Global Health Equity, September 11, 2012, Hospital Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur
4 comprehensive versus selective lessons
This document discusses the evolution of primary health care models for developing countries from the 1950s-1970s. It describes how the comprehensive primary health care model proposed at the 1978 Alma-Ata conference aimed to achieve health for all through universal access and addressing social determinants of health. However, selective primary health care, focusing on cost-effective disease interventions, was seen as more feasible. Some argue comprehensive primary health care was never truly implemented, while others view it as an experiment that failed. Debate continues on the best policy approach to improving global health.
Social Determinants of Health: Why Should We Bother?
Presentation delivered during the 2nd Social Oncology Forum with the theme "Social Determinants of Health in Agricultural Communities." November 10, 2013, Benguet State University, La Trinidad, Benguet.
The social context of public health
The lecture focuses on the evolution of health promotion as well as of the social context of health in postmodern societies. This topic reflects the most commonly used approaches and concepts which are useful for health promotion practice. Finally, the principles and methods of health needs assessment are presented.
Universal Health Coverage
This document discusses concerns about universal healthcare and whether the dominant medical model achieves health or just disease management. It questions if the model is scientifically and financially viable given rising disease burdens and medical errors being a leading cause of death. Alternative approaches that integrate Ayurveda and focus on prevention over cure are suggested but seen as unacceptable to the medical community. The document argues civil society must pursue justice and ensure healthcare reforms the system to truly achieve health.
9789240690837 eng
The World Health Report 2013 focuses on research for universal health coverage. It acknowledges progress made towards reducing child mortality through community-based interventions shown effective in randomized controlled trials. However, nearly 7 million children still die each year from preventable causes. The report advocates for more research to identify affordable, quality health services and improve health for all. It examines how research has contributed to universal health coverage goals in areas like insecticide-treated bed nets, antiretroviral therapy, zinc supplements, telemedicine, and new diagnostics.
Community Health Charities Introduction 2010
The document discusses the benefits of workplace wellness programs and charitable giving campaigns. It notes that over 133 million Americans have chronic illnesses, which account for 75% of healthcare spending. Workplace wellness programs have been shown to lower medical costs by $3.27 for every dollar spent and reduce absenteeism costs by $2.73 for every dollar spent. Such programs can improve employee health and productivity while reducing employers' healthcare costs.
Forty years ago, the Region of the Americas played a critical
Forty years ago, the Region of the Americas played a critical role in the develop-
ment and negotiation of the Alma-Ata Declaration, which identified primary health
care as a central strategy to the goal of health for all and a comprehensive approach to
the organization of health systems. Since then, the values and principles of primary
health care, which include the right to health, equity, solidarity, social justice and par-
ticipation, and multisectoral action, among others, have formed the basis of many
PAHO mandates and have guided health systems transformation in the Region. The
positive impact of primary health care on the reduction of mortality, morbidity, and
inequities in health is well known. (1) What’s more, primary health care consumes less
financial resources than curative approaches and promotes a chain of positive results
from improved health to increased economic output, growth and productivity. (2)
In 2007, PAHO’s position paper on Renewing Primary Health Care in the Americas
included the definition of elements and functions of a primary healthcare-based
health system with the intention of providing guidance to countries as they worked
to transform their systems. (3) In 2014, the 53rd PAHO Directing Council’s resolution
on Universal Access to Health and Universal Health Coverage (4) recognized the
values and principles of Alma-Ata. The resolution urged PAHO Member States to
promote intersectoral action to address social determinants of health and move
toward health systems where all people and communities have access, without any
discrimination, to comprehensive, appropriate and timely, quality health services, as
well as access to safe, effective, and affordable quality medicines, while ensuring that
the use of such services does not expose users to financial difficulties. (4) The Sustai-
nable Health Agenda for the Americas 2018–2030, which represents the commitment
of Member States to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and unfinished
business from previous engagements, established areas of action that reinforce and
complement the recommendations of the Alma-Ata Declaration. These include stren-
gthening the national health authority; tackling health determinants; increasing so-
cial protection and access to quality health services; diminishing health inequalities
among countries and inequities within them; reducing the risk and burden of disease;
strengthening the management and development of health workers; harnessing
knowledge, science, and technology; and strengthening health security. (5)
In the Region, the lessons that have been learned about the primary health care
approach since Alma-Ata have been overwhelmingly positive. We have seen that
countries that have implemented policies and programs based on primary health
care have registered the lowest levels of infant and maternal mortality. Other achie-
vements include improvement in public spending, increase in primary care s ...

This document summarizes a needs assessment conducted in Bangkok, Thailand to inform diabetes prevention efforts. Surveys found exercise was the top perceived need, with 28.9% reporting no exercise. However, participants noted a lack of community spaces and access barriers to physical activity. While organizers were concerned about a lack of cooperation and commitment to community-centered programs. The needs assessment identifies structural and participation barriers to address to effectively promote diabetes prevention in the community.
Civic Engagement
This document summarizes strategies used to undermine public acceptance of climate change science and discusses ways to more effectively engage the public on this issue. It notes that corporate interests have funded front groups and think tanks to manufacture doubt about climate science and make lack of certainty a political issue. As a result, news media often portray climate science as a two-sided controversy when there is actually a scientific consensus. It suggests joining online networks for information and action, developing new communication strategies, and promoting a values-based debate around climate solutions rather than perpetuating manufactured controversies.
Global Responsibilities for Health Care
The document discusses accountability for global health efforts. It asks if governments of poor countries are accountable for not spending more on domestic health and if so, to whom. It also asks if international organizations like the IMF and World Bank are accountable for policies that discourage health spending and if rich country governments are accountable for not providing more international health aid. It notes challenges to mutual accountability given both national and international responsibilities for health.
Understanding the Effect of the GAVI Initiative on Reported Vaccination Cover...
This document discusses the critical role of health metrics and evaluation in ensuring accountability, transparency and reducing corruption in global health. It provides two examples: tracking childhood immunization coverage shows investments have increased coverage gradually over 20 years but initiatives can lead to over-reporting; India's conditional cash transfer program for facility births increased coverage and likely reduced mortality, but quality issues remain. Overall, independent monitoring of health indicators and evaluation of programs is needed to show resources are having their intended impact.
Grass without roots
Foreign funding to NGOs in Nicaragua has undermined their accountability to grassroots organizations and limited their ability to catalyze social change. Due to short-term funding cycles tied to donor priorities, NGOs are more accountable to foreign donors than the communities they are meant to serve. This has contributed to a façade of civil society dominated by urban NGO elites rather than empowered grassroots organizations. As a result, NGOs have had minimal policy impact and have demobilized, rather than empowered, the people. Long-term funding structures that strengthen accountability to local constituencies may help NGOs better support grassroots organizations and social movements.

Perspectives and Controversies surrounding human rights
This document discusses the right to health from a human rights perspective. It begins by defining key concepts like health, human rights, and the relationship between health and human rights. It then examines how the right to health is established under international law through conventions like the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. The document also summarizes commentary on the right to health from the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. Finally, it discusses some controversies and challenges regarding a human rights-based approach to health, such as issues of universality and developing appropriate indicators.
Politics and Health Reform:Lessons From a Year in Washington, D.C.
This document summarizes the history of health reform efforts in the United States from the late 19th century to 2009. It discusses how a national health insurance system has been proposed since the 1880s but consistently opposed by groups like the AMA and insurance industry. The US now spends over twice as much per capita on healthcare as other OECD countries but has lower life expectancy and more administrative waste. Creating a universal, publicly financed system could reduce costs while improving access and outcomes.

His talk was on ""What Will It Take To Control TB?"
Health Societal Right100122 Web
This document discusses health as a societal right. It begins by discussing how health has traditionally been viewed as an individual responsibility but argues that there are no biological reasons why entire populations cannot be healthy. It then explores how health can be considered a societal or human right. The document examines how determinants of health are influenced by societal factors like inequality and poverty rather than just individual behaviors or access to healthcare. Overall, it promotes a view of health as a societal issue that governments should aim to improve and protect for entire populations, rather than just an individual concern.
"The Aid Enclave: Mapping and Emerging Geography of Global Health"
The document discusses how global health initiatives have led to the emergence of "aid enclaves" - self-contained areas focused on health research and aid that become isolated from their surroundings. It describes how these enclaves develop through economic, political, and ethical processes. Economically, they exist as tax-free zones that offer higher pay and privileges to foreigners compared to locals. Politically, they represent a return to colonial-style projects. Ethically, they position themselves as spaces of biomedical and moral correctness but may marginalize local healing practices. The document critiques how enclaves can act as "parasites" detached from the communities they aim to serve.
"U.S. Healthcare Reform"
1) The US ranks last among seven countries in overall health system performance and ranks last or near last on most measures of health care quality, access, efficiency, and equity.
2) While the US spends much more per capita on health care than other countries, it has poorer population health outcomes and shorter life expectancies.
3) Rising health care costs are consuming an increasing share of family budgets in the US. The percentage of families spending over 10% and over 25% of pre-tax income on health care doubled from 2000 to 2008.
"The Health System and Aid Effectives: Sudan's Experience"
The document summarizes Sudan's health system and aid effectiveness. It provides background on Sudan's location and history as a 4000 year old civilization. It then discusses Sudan's socio-economic context, including its potentially rich natural resources and decentralization of services. The health delivery system is described as providing free healthcare, with increasing expenditures over time. Main health issues are outlined and data is given on international NGO presence and beneficiaries across regions. The document concludes with some of the challenges facing Sudan's health system.

Students conduct a community health assessment and partner with local organizations to address health needs. The experience aims to provide cultural immersion and help students understand how to incorporate global health into their careers. Students are responsible for costs of $3,000-$5,000 and must complete assignments while abroad and after returning. Strong applicants have a genuine interest in global health and experience with underserved populations.
Mexico Health Reform
The document summarizes health reforms in Mexico from 1943-2004, with a focus on the 2004 reform that established the Health Social Protection System. It overviews declining mortality rates and increasing life expectancy over time. Key aspects of the 2004 reform included establishing universal health care coverage, separating financing from service provision, defining an essential benefits package, and increasing accountability through performance measurement. The reform reorganized Mexico's health system to improve access, quality, and financial protection for all citizens.
Aid In Mozambique
The document discusses health care systems and funding in Mozambique. It outlines the various sectors involved in health including public, private, NGOs, and traditional/alternative care. It also describes the types of funding for health care including vertical, horizontal, and diagonal funding. Vertical funding for specific diseases has increased from organizations like PEPFAR, Global Fund, and foundations. While this funding has increased dramatically, questions remain about whether NGOs effectively strengthen health systems or divert resources and can fragment services.
Code of Conduct
The document summarizes research into how NGOs are implementing a voluntary Code of Conduct for Health Systems Strengthening. Interviews found that while most signatories are aware of the Code and value its principles, they still face challenges adhering to provisions around hiring health workers from ministries of health and matching government salaries. Some promising practices discussed include building workforce capacity through training, advocating for improved public sector opportunities, and coordinating hiring and compensation policies among NGOs. Overall, signatories are committed to the Code's goals but continuing to test practical solutions for balancing them with operational needs.
Public, Private Partnerships
The document discusses the erosion of public sector health systems and increased privatization. It argues that without strong public sectors, healthcare will be inequitable and exclude the poor, rural communities, and marginalized groups. Public health measures also risk being neglected. It examines factors driving privatization like international financial institutions and private sector interests, and argues the private sector did not compensate for declines in public investment as hoped.
Private Sector Collaboration
The document discusses PATH's approach to collaborating with private sector partners to advance global health technologies. It focuses on PATH bringing expertise in developing country health systems and strategic relationships, while partners contribute product development expertise, intellectual property, and distribution systems. The collaboration aims to improve availability, accessibility, and affordability of important health products for public health programs.
