Population Health Question

Population Health Question

Please read the designated chapters in your resource for this Week 5 assignment. This is an integrative assignment. Please also review the resources you used for Weeks 3 and 4, as they will also be useful in this integrative assignment. A review of the assignments for Weeks 3 and 4 may also be useful.

This assignment has three parts:

Part 1: Insights Summary

Prepare a summary of what you believe to be the three most important insights gleaned from the Chapters you read in the resource SAGE Mixed Methods Research.

Part 2: Data Surveys

Select three national quantitative data surveys that address a specific population health problem. Identify each by name, intended purpose, and the reference source.

Part 3: Assessment Instruments

What qualitative assessment instrument or instruments will complement your choice of quantitative data surveys? That is what qualitative approach you would use to reinforce or highlight the need for an intervention in your community. Recall that you learned how national quantitative databases are frequently used along with local qualitative studies to reinforce the relevance of a proposed intervention. Here are a few suggested topics where the quantitative/qualitative approach have been successfully used.

  • The use of the emergency department for non-emergent care.
  • The incidence and prevalence rates for diabetes in middle school-aged children.
  • The effectiveness of pediatric urgent care.

Length: 3-5 pages (all parts), not including title and reference pages

Question: You are a contracting officer’s technical representative, a security system engineer, at a military hospital. Your department’s leaders are adopting a new medical health care database management system. And they’ve tasked you to create a request for proposal for which different vendors will compete to build and provide to the hospital. A request for proposal, or RFP, is when an organization sends out a request for estimates on performing a function, delivering a technology, or providing a service or augmenting staff. RFPs are tailored to each endeavor but have common components and are important in the world of IT contracting and for procurement and acquisitions. To complete the RFP, you must determine the technical and security specifications for the system. You’ll write the requirements for the overall system and also provide evaluation standards that will be used in rating the vendor’s performance. Your learning will help you determine your system’s requirements. As you discover methods of attack, you’ll write prevention and remediation requirements for the vendor to perform. You must identify the different vulnerabilities the database should be hardened against. Deliverables: An RFP, 10 pages, in the form of a double-spaced Word document with citations in APA format. The page count does not include figures, diagrams, tables, or citations. There is no penalty for using additional pages. Include a minimum of six references. Include a reference list with the report. Requirements: 10 pages please use a bold subheadings.

Read “You Make the Call: How connected should we be?”

I need help with a short answer question.

Read “You Make the Call: How connected should we be?” on page 59 of the Mental Health and Stress chapter.

After reading the article and the entire Mental Health & Stress Chapter, discuss your educated opinion on this topic. Whenever possible, relate your answers to our course material.

Are we as a society “too connected?” Do you think this issue of connectivity affects mental health? Do you personally find that you struggle to disconnect? Are there certain daily times / activities you feel that should be absolutely free from device connectivity? You may want to discuss the pros and cons of constant connectivity that you have experienced in your own life, or the lives of those close to you. What strategies are available to help someone who is struggling to disconnect for a healthly period of time?
