  • “Developing a Health Care Policy: Addressing Quality Care and Ethical Issues”

    Episode 1: Policy Analysis and Development 
    Overview see  guidance and attached transcript.
    In this episode, you will be in a health care policy internship program in a Senator’s office in Washington, D.C.  The Senator wants to develop policy that requires all health care organizations that receive federal funds to implement the recommendations presented in the Institute of Medicine reports on quality care. You will develop a policy, so that it can become proposed legislation. You must collect data, describe the problem, solutions and related ethical issues, examine the cost-benefit analysis, identify stakeholders (such as lobbyists from American Hospital Association, health care providers, health care corporations, pharmaceuticals, insurers, etc.), and impact.  Based on this information, you will create a policy description that will be the foundation for a bill. You will describe critical issues that would be in the bill such as requirements of hospitals to:
    Monitor and report medical errors to the Department of Health and Human Services
    Use root cause analysis on a certain percentage of errors
    Track and report patient outcomes focused on the clinical problems identified in the National Health Care Quality Report
    Integrate the 5 healthcare profession core competencies into staff education and track outcomes
    Establish a no-blame culture
    *I suggest that you do some research on your own, and if you use outside sources to help you compile your policy description, be sure to reference them (following an APA format) at the end of your post.
    To-Do for this Assignment:
    You will post a policy description to this discussion board forum. Make sure to identify a plan that addresses legal and ethical issues in a health care policy. 
    Below are the characters from this LearnScapes scenario (LearnScapes for Health Policy 1):
    The Student (which is you), Health Care Policy Intern for Congress
    The student used to work within the Bright Road Health Care System, and had a special interest in policy. The student is thinking about moving into politics, hoping to make a difference at that level. The student has just been accepted into the internship; this is the student’s first big project.
    Peter Shackley, Senior Policy Staff Member
    The student’s mentor, Peter, is a young and feisty staff member. In his late 20s, Pete has been interested in politics since he was President of his high school student body. He’s especially passionate about policy-making and how the process works. Pete will help guide the student through the policy-making process.
    Gretchen Wilde, Senator Chief of Staff
    Gretchen is in her 30s and has been the Senator’s Chief of Staff for about 2 years now. She’s very professional, and holds high expectations for everyone in the Senator’s office, including interns. Gretchen is responsible for reviewing policy ideas and descriptions before giving the approval to create a bill.
    Marian Powers, Senator
    Senator Powers is a Senator in her late 40s. She’s extremely busy with legislative issues, and trusts her staff members implicitly so does not spend a lot of time working directly with the team on this policy.
    However, the student and other staff members sometimes contact her for information about state issues, reaction of stakeholders, etc.

    Here are the preliminary results.   I have embedded comments to help you understand them.   Please review with your group.  
    Within your group, you must identify hypotheses (minimum of three), you wish to test.  You will forward these to me, and I will run the results.  Hypotheses must examine two or more variables.  These should be based upon theory.   For example, you may want to examine what data respondents are willing to provide by gender.  Are there differences between men and women?  These are the two largest categories for gender.

  • Title: Health Promotion Plan for Addressing Bullying in a Hypothetical Community “Streamlining Your Plan: The Importance of Clear and Concise Writing”

    The Topic is: Bullying is a repeated aggressive
    behavior that is intentional and involves an imbalance of power or
    strength. It can take many forms, such as physical, verbal, or
    relational
    aggression.
    – Potential Health Impacts: Victims may experience depression,
    anxiety, low self-
    esteem,
    physical health problems, suicidal thoughts, and academic problems.
    Communities
    with prevalent bullying can have a general atmosphere of fear and
    mistrust
    For this assessment, you will propose a hypothetical health promotion plan addressing a particular health concern or health need affecting a fictitious individual or group living in the community.
    o complete your hypothetical health promotion plan, please use the following outline to guide your work:
    Health Promotion Plan
    After you select a specific health concern or health need from the resource above, next investigate the concern or need and best practices for health improvement, based on supporting evidence.
    Create a scenario as if this project were being completed face-to-face.
    Identify the chosen population and include demographic data (location, lifestyle, age, race, ethnicity, gender, marital status, income, education, employment).
    Describe in detail the characteristics of your chosen hypothetical individual or group for this activity and how they are relevant to this targeted population.
    Discuss why your chosen population is predisposed to this health concern or health need and why they can benefit from a health promotion educational plan.
    Based on the health concern for your hypothetical individual or group, discuss what you would include in the development of a sociogram. Take into consideration possible social, economic, cultural, genetic, and/or lifestyle behaviors that may have an impact on health as you develop your educational plan in your first assessment. You will take this information into consideration when you develop your educational plan in your fourth assessment.
    Identify their potential learning needs. Collaborate with the individual or group on SMART goals that will be used to evaluate the educational session (Assessment 4).
    Identify the individual or group’s current behaviors and outline clear expectations for this educational session and offer suggestions for how the individual or group needs can be met.
    Health promotion goals need to be clear, measurable, and appropriate for this activity. Consider goals that will foster behavior changes and lead to the desired outcomes.
    Document Format and Length
    Your health promotion plan should be 3–4 pages in length.
    Supporting Evidence
    Support your health promotion plan with peer-reviewed articles, course study resources, and Healthy People 2030 resources. Cite at least three credible sources published within the past five years, using APA format.
    Graded Requirements
    The requirements outlined below correspond to the grading criteria in the scoring guide, so be sure to address each point. Read the performance-level descriptions for each criterion to see how your work will be assessed.
    Analyze the health concern that is the focus of your health promotion plan.
    Consider underlying assumptions and points of uncertainty in your analysis.
    Explain why a health concern is important for health promotion within a specific population.
    Examine current population health data.
    Consider the factors that contribute to health, health disparities, and access to services.
    Explain the importance of establishing agreed-upon health goals in collaboration with hypothetical participants.
    Organize content so ideas flow logically with smooth transitions; contains few errors in grammar/punctuation, word choice, and spelling.
    Apply APA formatting to in-text citations and references exhibiting nearly flawless adherence to APA format.
    Write with a specific purpose and audience in mind.
    Adhere to scholarly and disciplinary writing standards and APA formatting requirements.
    Before submitting your assessment for grading, proofread it to minimize errors that could distract readers and make it difficult for them to focus on the substance of your plan.
