Note: The focus of this assignment as it relates to your selected public health issue should be prevention and treatment.
Provide a 3 to 5-page Microsoft Word document that includes the following:
Discuss current interventions by public health and medical care professionals for the health issue that you have selected.
Develop a general plan for how the health concern could be addressed more effectively using public health and medical care organizations.
Explain why the changes that you are proposing would be beneficial to the population and to the organization providing healthcare services, thereby improving health outcomes.
Question Description: My topic is Cancer and I chose two questions as a draft .and base on these questions we have to write this assignment.I will attach last week’s assignment which is very related to this assignment and from that three resources, we can improve our research.

For this assignment, you will prepare a 15- to 20-slide PowerPoint presentation with detailed speaker’s notes of 100 to 150 words for each slide, not including the title and reference slides.The presentation will be created from the perspective of an upper-level administrator of one of the following types of health care organizations:
Over the past year, the organization has received numerous negative reviews from patients and clients using the services at your chosen organization. Overall, the organization’s reputation in the community has suffered due to
poor health outcomes for patients and clients who have received care from the organization.
Further, the employees are also struggling with burnout due to a heavy workload and poor management methods.
In the presentation, you must identify the key issues that are causing the negative survey results and then address the sequence of steps needed to create the organizational change necessary for improving the customer experience.
In your PowerPoint Presentation, address the following:
Leadership and management

Discuss the semi-controllable and non-controllable forces that influenced the performance issues identified in the surveys.

Evaluate the hypothetical program that you created (DOMESTIC ABUSE in PUBLIC HEALTH) using the following types of evaluation: formative, process, outcome, and impact. Identify each type of evaluation that you are using and the part of the program to which it applies, program goals, and program accomplishments. Describe successful areas of the program and areas that need improvement. For the areas requiring improvement, present the changes that will be made, the anticipated outcomes, and how those changes would be evaluated.
Write a 15 page, double-spaced paper in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
Utilize at least 7 scholarly sources in your research and be sure to include a references page. Write in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
Submission Details

Cite all sources using the APA format
Requirements: 15 pages, double-spaced
Please make sure that the scholarly references are peer reviewed. Also keep in mind, that this is my final paper so, everything has to be grammarly correct, concise and as detailed as possible.
My professor posted this as a guideline for this project:
TIPS/GUIDELINES:
Evaluate the hypothetical program that you created using the following types of evaluation: formative, process, outcome, and impact. Remember the meaning of each of the evaluation processes:
Formative: Ensures that a program or program activity is feasible, appropriate, and acceptable before it is fully implemented. To what extent is the need being met? What can be done to address this need?
Process: Evaluating how the process of implementing a project fared. Were the components of the intervention implemented as planned?
Impact: Effects of a program. What short-term or immediate effect did the intervention have?
Outcome: The real health impact of a program, and to theoretical links made between short-term impact and long-term outcome. Did the intervention affect the health problem/issue that was the ultimate target?
Identify each type of evaluation that you are using and the part of the program to which it applies, program goals, and program accomplishments.
Using your developed program, explain how each type of evaluation will be used, when it will be used, and how it affects (shows) the program goals and accomplishments.
Describe successful areas of the program and areas that need improvement. For the areas requiring improvement, present the changes that will be made, the anticipated outcomes, and how those changes would be evaluated.
Hypothetically, complete the evaluation process for the outcome and the impact evaluations to determine areas of success and areas needing additional improvement. You must state at least one of each in order to continue with the assignment. For those items needing improvement, what changes can be made to improve them, how will those changes affect the outcomes, what will now be the anticipated outcomes, and how those new items will be evaluated (what evaluation type, when it will be used, and how it will be used). Use published, scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles to support your claims.
There is some concern about a growing number of research studies that cannot be reproduced. Describe the implications this has for the research community as a whole. Include the steps that can be taken in order to try to mitigate this growing concern.

Successful completion of this project is intended to demonstrate the student’s ability to effectively “synthesize and integrate knowledge acquired in coursework” (CE Handbook, rev. Aug 2016), as well as demonstrate application of theory and theoretical principles in discussion of a public health topic of choice.
Online program students are asked to complete a Public Health Analysis (PHA) for the ILE requirement. The resulting PHA is expected to be a “high quality written document that demonstrates achievement of the core and program competencies” (CE Handbook, rev. Aug 2016) associated with the student’s program of focus – for CAEPH students: OHSM
Upon completion of the MPH degree in occupational health and safety management, graduates will have the following competencies:
Integrate the fundamentals of project management into occupational and/or environmental health and safety programs.
Evaluate the program performance for ongoing improvement.
Students should work to identify a topic of interest for their PHA, while considering the program competencies that they’re interested in addressing. The successful PHA may take several forms – applied research, literature review, critical review of PH issue with recommendations, evaluation of PH project/program, policy analysis, etc. – but, in all cases, the final product must be a high quality written document.
The student and advisor will work to identify (at least) three program competencies to be successfully demonstrated in the PHA and will coordinate any timelines and deadlines for timely project progress and completion directly.
Successful completion of an ILE/PHA will be based on the development of an agreed upon assessment rubric between the student and the mentor. After report completion, the mentor will work with the student to review the strengths and any areas of improvement needed to the report, in regards to the rubric.
Some examples include:
Investigating and proposing solutions to a public health or workplace problem
Evaluation of a workplace program or project
Developing a training manual with materials and learner evaluations
Critical review of a public health or workplace issue with analysis and recommendations
Policy statement based on a critical analysis with supporting research
NOTE: Please ensure that you’ve thoroughly reviewed the current SPHTM Integrated Learning Experience Handbook for detailed information regarding registration requirements and limitations for ILEs, as well as comprehensive material on assessment and evaluation of your PHA.
please use a different topic from the previous paper. Thank you.
