This unit’s discussion will focus on sharing experiences that you have encountered so far in utilizing the EMR system in your pediatric clinical rotation. You should address how the system promotes safety, improves patient outcomes, monitors growth and development and includes pediatric-specific recommended core functionalities in Pediatric Electronic Health Records. Include your appraisal of the system and the Core Functionality in Pediatric Electronic Health Records. Please post your initial response and respond to your classmates for a rich conversation.
Compare and contrast a cost-benefit analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis.
QQUESTION TO ANSWER: (W2 DQ2 PUB 650)
Compare and contrast a cost-benefit analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis. Summarize the purpose, strengths, limitations, and assumptions that underlie each approach. Discuss how to apply these approaches in public health policy development, citing an example for each from the research literature.
HSC300 Stratford University Community needs Assessments
Lesson 2
Activity 1: Conducting a Needs Assessment
Based on what you have learned about conducting a needs assessment, and the community you have determined to use, design a needs assessment survey. Use the checklist to help focus your survey.
Activity 2: Determine who will complete the survey and how it will be conducted. Your team will carry out the survey with the identified population. Be sure that the population is appropriate for the survey and for the assessment that the chosen community needs.
Activity 3: Conducting Focus Groups
Together develop standardized interview questions to use with focus groups to determine needs of the community. Use the checklist and examples to help focus your discussion.
Be sure that the focus group questions are relevant to the problem and audience.
Project Assignment:
Conduct a needs assessment of a chosen community (may be local, a city, or even a state). The needs assessment should be thorough and follow the guide in the Community Tool Box
It should also include a survey of a minimum of 20 participants in the targeted audience and a focus group.
Assessment done for a local children’s hospital, actually performed by a contractor. Note the level of detail compared with the Portsmouth City document.
Take a look at some other examples of community health assessments by “Googling” Community Health Assessment and peruse some of the top needs/health threats noted. Do you notice any trends? Write up a short list of Health threats common to all these assessments.
Reflect on the four peer-reviewed articles you selected in Module 2 and the four systematic reviews (or other filtered high- level evidence) you selected in Module 3.
Reflect on the four peer-reviewed articles you selected in Module 2 and analyzed in Module 3.

The Assignment (Evidence-Based Project)
Part 3A: Critical Appraisal of Research
Conduct a critical appraisal of the four peer-reviewed articles you selected by completing the Evaluation Table within the Critical Appraisal Tool Worksheet Template. Choose a total of four peer- reviewed articles that you selected related to your clinical topic of interest in Module 2 and Module 3.
Note: You can choose any combination of articles from Modules 2 and 3 for your Critical Appraisal. For example, you may choose two unfiltered research articles from Module 2 and two filtered research articles (systematic reviews) from Module 3 or one article from Module 2 and three articles from Module 3. You can choose any combination of articles from the prior Module Assignments as long as both modules and types of studies are represented.
Part 3B: Critical Appraisal of Research
Based on your appraisal, in a 1-2-page critical appraisal, suggest a best practice that emerges from the research you reviewed. Briefly explain the best practice, justifying your proposal with APA citations of the research.
